Uhm... I don't follow.<p>Sounds like a lot of yada yada yada... corporations are evil... yada yada... Google is evil... yada yada... Mozilla is evil... yada yada... ChromeOS... And on and on.<p>And it seems that when corporations take BSD and build their own distro that's cool - somehow, because BSD is "developed by open source enthusiasts", but when the same happens with Linux it is somehow hijacked.<p>Similarly when corporations contribute to BSD that somehow leads to different results compared to contributing to Linux.<p>Perhaps the author hasn't heard of Debian?<p>And then the pointless detour into Mozilla's Firefox. Perhaps BSD has a magic browser that's not Firefox (or Chrome, though I am not at all a fan of Chrome)?<p>For the record I have used both BSD (FreeBSD specifically) and Linux (many distributions over the years, currently I like Fedora). Both have their advantages and disadvantages.<p>I do agree with some of the Author's points, actually, but that article is just sensationalist and loses a lot of weight because of that.
> systemd does provide improvements to Linux, but the main problem with systemd is that its continued development is motivated by a company's economic interests and not the Open Source community interests<p>Is there any direct event to back this affirmation? I get that corporations have their own agenda, but is there any changes that systemd received that was directly influenced by a corporation and led to a behavior the community generally regarded as bad?
So, tell me again, in practical terms, why I shouldn't install that Debian instance? What bad things are going to happen, exactly, that BSD will avoid?
