IMO the main problem of Linux is hype and cancel culture and the free
as in beer approach. Linux isn't conservative enough and does migrate
from one thing to another, before such a replacement is matured. You
will not find this approach when using FreeBSD. People get banned from
Linux mailing list way to often for no valid reasons, hence no good user
feedback is possible at all. This doesn't happen on FreeBSD mailing
lists.

OTOH while FreeBSD is way more reliable for many domains, some domains
are even more behind the times, than those domains are already behind
the times on Linux. Actually for some domains you need proprietary
solutions, IOW Apple operating systems based on FreeBSD.

OTOH proprietary solutions became completely unusable for some other
domains and it became impossible to customize and really program a
computer by a user or even by professional developer to the user's
needs, due to restrictions enforced by the underlying operating system.

It's a dilemma, we reached the zenith of the very first era of computer
culture. There's the need of a collapse, followed by a realignment.
