is this the power of FreeBSD trannies

If you have to ask, don't bother.
The experience of using BSD is like learning a new distro, except because you're not dealing with a Linux a lot of the common stuff you expect all Linux distros to have is gone, so it's even more of an odd duck. And when you're finally up and running and comfortable with BSD, you'll soon realize that you were doing the exact same shit as you were in Linux anyway.
This is the point where FreeBSD fans scream about dtrace, ZFS and pf, but it is incredibly unlikely that you'll actually benefit from any of the supposed advantages of these features.

Btrfs is better than zfs unless you absolutely need erasure coding.

Yeah, I figure its probably too deep. I've been through the most minimal distros of linux and wanted to see if I was missing anything in terms of a true unix system. At this point, from what I've read, the majority of differences has to do with the package tree and some minor utility differences, all which lead to a desktop environment running on xorg, generally speaking.

i distro hopped a lot too, but when i tried void i just stopped, it feels like different from other distros and i dont know why honestly, people say it feels a lot like the various BSDs so i now have the urge to try if i found myself even comfier on them, but it kinda scare me, i'm quite used to linux and even if void is kinda different, it wasnt totally obscure to me, are bsds THAT different to setup and use?

I think the same components are there as part of a unix based system. BSD tries to centralize core development where as linux tends to outsource. A BSD release contains the kernel, build utils, and system utils as part of an inseparable concept, where as on linux you can use any number of versions of those things.

Supposedly this results in a more cohesive system.

Also running void-musl with mostly suckless utilities. Pretty legit system and I'm probably going to stick with it. Arch is nice but I hate systemd. Im able to get my void distro, running x and dwm, down to 47mb ram usage. Three lightest I could get arch was 152mb.

its a distribution of the number of high iq individuals who have installed the respective os. a small and smooth brain like you wouldn't get it.
