Maybe use it in a VM, or find a supported wifi dongle.
I would say use it in a VM because you can try different BSD's, and don't have to worry about making mistakes. You can take what you learn and apply it to when you actually install for real.
The three major BSD's are FreeBSD, OpenBSD, and NetBSD. Read up on both of them, and see which one you think would fit your needs. FreeBSD is probably the one with the biggest community, so it's easier to find help when you need it.

All of that makes sense to me. I'm not using gentoo though lol. I'd probably keep a debian install around at all times out of habit.....For non systemd linux probably void, and for unix like probably one of the bsd's

yeah systemd isn't for me, but I don't hate it. On debian so far it hasn't really affected me negatively. After xz vulnerability I see increasing problems with it, and am considering using other distros including void......or one of the bsd's........

That sub is normally trash, true. But, there's another thread about this topic that's a bit better.

How do you like that compared to other distros?

To be fair, there was another thread discussing the same topic, and many people were calling out the vaxry, and pointing out the amount of brigading going on. Once any topic like this is brought up, the worst type of people come out......
Latest foss drama. Consequences of your actions........ the /r/linux subreddit thread about this is as awful as you would imagine. The SJW's are coming for your toothbrush!!!-

I liked LEAP when I tried it a couple of years back. They're getting rid of it soon, and I don't really like rolling releases so probably won't try anything SUSE any time soon.

started with ubuntu in 2008, moved to debian a few months into it. Tried other distros at other times, but the stability of debian keeps me coming back to it. Plus I like the fact it's a community distro

NetBSD didn't fork from Free iirc. They took 4.4 BSD and started developing it themselves of the net.
Theo de Raadt was kicked out of netbsd, and started OpenBSD.

you're more likely to find BSD communities on reddit, each projects mailing lists, freebsd forums, and unitedbsd.com (which is a great forum, although not too active).

No, but I think someone made read only support for ZFS available on OpenBSD. Freebsd is obviously the best for ZFS. It works on NetBSD too.

NetBSD, from their own website:
The NetBSD Project's goals
A project has no point if it doesn't have goals. Thankfully, the NetBSD Project has enough goals to keep it busy for quite some time. Generally speaking, the NetBSD Project:
provides a well designed, stable, and fast BSD system,
avoids encumbering licenses,
provides a portable system, which runs on many hardware platforms,
interoperates well with other systems,
conforms to open systems standards as much as is practical.
In summary: The NetBSD Project provides a freely available and redistributable system that professionals, hobbyists, and researchers can use in whatever manner they wish.
Based on the name of have assumed it’s be used in things like network appliances but in 20 years I’ve never seen a single device use it.
The name comes from being develop over the internet, when that was still a pretty new concept. It's pretty popular among Japanese ISP's iirc.
If you're at all interested in unix, you should try NetBSD. Open has security as a focus...although some of that is overstated imo. FreeBSD is clearly targeting servers, even if it is all purpose.
NetBSD is less popular, but it's clean, lightweight, portable, has pkgsrc. Think of Net as a cross between Open and Free.

This is about a month old, but this distro is now released. It's a completely independent distro from China.
Maybe this is better asked elsewhere, but question basically in the title. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with Mozilla VPN, and if so what they thought about it.
Seeing mixed reports about the head of wagner rolling into Rostov, Russia. All kinds of other rumors swirling around. Anyone have any good info, or good sources to follow?
I started using Jeboa about a day and a half ago, no problem. It defaulted to lemmy.ml rather than lemmygrad.ml. No problem as I was browsing anon just to see how I liked the app. Now, when I open the app, nothing is loaded, and changing from local to all still loads nothing. Is this a problem with lemmy.ml? How can I change instances.
Chimera is an interesting new Linux distro with no systemd, BSD utils instead of gnu, and other unique design choices. Reading about it on lobste.rs, the developer (or one of them) commented: " why does every other linux distribution exist? most of them provide far less added value compared to the others, yet nobody questions their existence, perhaps because they are fundamentally uninteresting it’s always a combination of many smaller factors i just wanted to make a well-rounded and somewhat opinionated system without cruft or sketchy parts, but still featureful and generally usable (no suckless junk), with a low-maintenance but high-correctness package build system and infrastructure, no systemd but taking service management and everything around it seriously (there are exactly 0 other non-systemd distros that do that), easy to bootstrap, architecture-agnostic, and hardened (as much as possible without introducing visible breakage or significant performance loss; the only “linux distro” that really takes this seriously is android, and that’s not general-purpose) none of the individual choices like userland base or libc or whatever are goals in themselves, they are a means to an end or just the most obvious thing given the circumstances"
I use lemmy and reddit. Reddit can be awful for politics, but it has lots of little niche subs that make using it worthwhile for me. But since reddit is about to die, and I only use lemmy on desktop, I was wondering what android users think is the best lemmy app?
I don't have telegram, but I have been able to view his/their telegram page since the conflict started. Recently I can't at all. Has anyone else experienced this or can offer insight as to why this happened?

What is/are the best sources for what is going currently in Iran? Is it a regime change OP by the west? An attempt to destabilize Iran enough to slow down their nuclear program? A legitimate response to gov't repression? What do you think? Where is the most reliable source for ML's to get news about Iran from?
