OpenBSD and FreeBSD (and their forks) are out of the question for me. My problem with Linux is the LLM-generated parts of the source code, and NetBSD (and MirBSD) is the only active BSD without any slop in the source.
The issue to me is that the LLMs used to generate said parts are trained on code from all of the internet without regard for licenses or legal restrictions—in short: it is stolen code.
I am of the opinion that this goes directly against copyleft ideals, like those of the GPL etc., by allowing corporations to take software under “restrictive” licenses* and exfiltrate them as proprietary, copyright software.
* i.e. ones that would require them to actually contribute to FLOSS instead of leaching off of it
I love pkgsrc. Thought flatpak, snaps, and appimages solved fragmentation, well pkgsrc solved OS fragmentation across ALL UNIX-LIKE SYSTEMS. I want netBSD to keep working on their rumpkernels as well, so we run their drivers ON ANY OS.
(I wanted to put emphasis to show how amazing NetBSD is)
Just use Arch btw
Or Artix ^^
Or, for the bravest and boldest: NetBSD.
I prefer OpenBSD. everything works on that. the wifi is way better than FreeBSD and my USB headphones actually work on it.

What exact issues have you found in the LLM-generated parts of the Linux source code?

I really like pkgsrc too, but pacman (+ AUR) has so much software! It’s pretty tough choice, honestly.
Of course you run NetBSD 🙄.

I actually don’t yet. I’m just planning to at some point :3
