Who would've thought we'd yearn for the days of "dumb" systems that operated without issue and displayed your song media? It used to be the looks that drew you to old cars but increasingly it's the fact they're not hoovering up your data and doing all other bullshit that makes you wary as well.

Linux phones are coming along. Still 10 years out from being viable for most I guess but that is the ultimate goal if you ask me- something that can't be locked up by one gigantic corporation and that lets you do what you want with your own hardware.

Ingress is pretty defined. You could swap in most and be fine. Traefik and others have middleware/annotations that can do some special stuff if needed. Otherwise you can look at the Gateway spec and choose one of those. A bit more fully featured in terms of serving not only http(s) but also tcp, grpc, etc. Just a bit less fully featured when you look at what custom annotations some ingress solutions built-in (ie. ingress-nginx and others.) Just kind of depends on your use case. If you have no special needs I recommend just getting on board with gateway (traefik, calico, etc. all make implementations) since it's the future of K8s ingress/egress.

"The point of the system is to make it hard for malware authors to distribute malware" Gonna stop you right there. Google can't even keep malware out of its own curated Play Store. This is not for security. This is about control, 100%. Please don't piss down my leg and tell me it's raining.

Honestly, it's ok enough to use but very cluttered. That and it is far, far uglier than Gnome which has a more cohesive experience. I've set some people up with Debian KDE and they like it but I myself won't switch from Gnome personally. JMHO.

Quite frankly, FreeBSD isn't ever going to catch up to Linux on the desktop (IMO.) It's not a priority and there are few distros to use it anyhow (Midnight and Ghost IIRC, couple others.) It will still be used on servers but IF Linux ever gets a network stack equal to BSD (eBPF I think is what they are going to?) then I see Linux taking off even more on the server side than it already has. Even then, the run to containerization has only solidified Linux's edge as it basically has won out against jails.
