“ The system is consistent - kernel and userland are created and managed by the same team”
Their first reason is really saying a lot but with few words. For one, there’s no systemd. The init system is maintained alongside the entire rest of the system which adds a lot of consistency. The documentation for FreeBSD is also almost always accurate and standard. Etc etc
I think you also largely don’t need a docker or etc in it since jails have been native to the OS for decades. I’d want to do some cross comparison first though before committing to that statement.
Shouldn’t be lost that the licensing is also much friendlier to business uses. There’s afaik no equivalent to rhel, for that matter. This goes both ways though as how would you hire a FreeBSD admin based on their resume without a rhce-like FreeBSD certification program?
Edit-I’ll posit that since FreeBSD is smaller an entity wishing to add features to the OS might face either less backlash or at least enjoy more visibility from the top developers of the OS. Linus, for instance, just has a larger list of entities vying for his attention on issues and commits.
