- no ASLR, falling behind even Windows? check
- people updating their systems getting pwned for 3+ months with complete apathy from the developers? check
- first round of fixes terribly broken and inviting exploitation while updating to those fixes? check
- final round of fixes still exposes unsandboxed gunzip before integrity checks in portsnap and freebsd-update downloads

Yeah it would lower the filesize.

u mad cis scum?
FreeBSD is notoriously insecure.
Unfortunately, OpenBSD is notoriously slow (but it's better than FreeBSD overall).
NetBSD is a bit of a compromise between the two.
If ZFS had a GPL-compatible license, FreeBSD would be irrelevant.

Reminder that Linux will face the same fate sooner than later.
Where does dragonfly sit
>vez.mrsk.me
ZFSonLinux exists, user. FreeBSD is already irrelevant.
Isn't Free the Debian of BSD?
Lol no
Use Dragonfly.
wait, so someone found a vulnerability in the upgrade signing in 2016 and it hasn't been fixed?
HardenedBSD exists
does it even compile?
>pwned
people still use this?
Never seen this before, I don't understand how the most popular BSD used in production has such shitty security by default
BSD always was about being not Linux, not about having actual features
FreeBSD was shit for security way before the CoC
1:20 for freeBSD, watch from beginning for context

It's a shame I really like the idea of having a complete OS with consistent code, configuration, philosophies, and documentation, instead of a collection of compatible software. But yeah I can see from almost every forum post from the past 10 years it's all
>*Scoff* I'd never trust Linux with anything I care about
And
>Muh ZFS, muh network stack, much pf
But Linux's ZFS support and network stack are getting better all the time and it's getting a pf implementation sponsored by Netflix, one of the biggest users of FreeBSD
Honestly they need to stop riding on the points made above and actually improve their OS
The devs only care about performance
but can they perform anything?
:thinking: what do you mean user
>OpenBSD is notoriously slow
This is not true
have you tried installing gentoo?
see
*SNAP*
yep, that's going in my kernel compilation
>those read lines
Nope, didn't read it.
it is now, hyperthreading has been disabled by default.
