I like it, for the most part. Obviously you need to check to see if your hardware is supported, but it's a good OS. It's stable, has neat features like boot environments, and it with pkg and the ports tree you can have newer versions of software. Also, they don't make changes to the OS for the sake of it, or because one person or group wants it. They make change with a clear plan in my mind. Sometimes that means features land later in FreeBSD, but they're implemented more thoughtfully imo.

OpenBSD and NetBSD are also cool projects in their own right.

since you're used to debian, maybe try something that isn't debian based.

PCLinuxOS

Mageia

Slackware

OpenSuse

Free/open/netbsd

even when chrome was obviously faster, and was gaining in popularity, I still used FF. It's my preferred browser, and using it along with ublock origin makes going online more hassle free. Add to that multi account containers, reader mode, and just the general ability to customize it, I really can't see myself using another browser

btrfs and snapshots is one solution

Also, it looks like you were able to solve the problem, even if you aren't 100% sure why. Maybe the difference in package versions lead to some problem with the bootloader, causing it to go to emergency mode, and updating it fixed the problem?

Another is using a more stable distro....

rif was one of the reasons I stuck with android lol.....It was probably my most used app. Probably borderline phone addiction due to it lmao.

I heard about this a little while back. I think it's interesting, and it's nice to see someone try something slightly different. The creator is obviously opinionated about how their distro should work. At least it's not just another debian/ubuntu based distro.
