            Its more of a niche. You probably won’t have the huge support you have on gnu/Linux nowadays

              “gnu/Linux nowadays” is unusable on old hardware (except distros like Alpine) I think?

                There are a bunch of distros focused on old hardware compatibility. I often install Linux on 32 bit laptops from around 2008 and they work perfectly

        That research is much easier than figuring out what is computer’s “stack” without using my first language!

          Dude I’m a beginner struggling to learn Linux because there are so many options, so few good explanations, and people like you only want to patronize me

          I just want a tldr

            so few good explanations

            What a lack of documentation. On BSDs we didn’t suffer that.

            I just want a tldr

            BSD is an operating system. It diverged into FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD.
