FreeBSD

1. A "free" variant of BSD released in 1993, which is forked from 4.4BSD-Lite, it is the most popular BSD out of all the BSDs. FreeBSD was one of the two BSDs that split off from 386BSD, the other one being NetBSD. some companies use FreeBSD along with other BSDs as a base for their system software due the appeal of the BSD license, the BSD license doesn't force you to release the source code of your modified version of BSD, whereas Linux is licensed under the GNU GPLv2 license, which would require these corporations to release the source code of their modified version of Linux. 2. What most Linux users fear. the ones that fear it are usually between the 12-26 age group, and they have only been using Linux since 2018 or later, and feel like they are totally different people because they use a different OS, and look down at people who don't use Linux, and areń't serious Linux users. Unfortunately most of these Linux users never make it past the installer, or they run into issues with Xorg due to nVidia while trying to install a Desktop Environment, or they're straight up inmature and say '"FREEBSD SUX LOL XDDDDD" without even trying FreeBSD, or maybe their 1000$ 4K UHD Webcam for Minecraft: M$ Edition doesn't have BSD drivers.
