[Actually, it leads far back, when I was using Windows 7... but let's
skip that for now]

Once upon a time (it being about a year or so ago) I was using Alpine Linux on
a now decomissioned netbook bearing the hostname of 'Mizuki', but felt
completely disappointed after being a Linux user since 2018, because I
had been actively delaying the inevitable, it becoming a worse Windows.

One day I suddenly remembered about FreeBSD, which I booted only once on
VirtualBox back when I used Windows 7, I recall it being the eleventh
major version, where I had failed to connect it to the network, which
was quite a problem in my part, not the operating system's.

*ahem*

I downloaded a 13.0-RELEASE memstick and wrote it to my companion
pendrive (obviously backed up my data earlier somewhere else), and
rebooted onto it. I first attempted to dual-boot it with Alpine Linux,
only to find out GRUB being a complete piece of trash, which made me
snap my fingers and put it as the sole operating system in the computer,
it took me quite a reasonable time to get things up, and eventually
reached the moment where I could never look at Linux with the same light
ever again. Fast-forward a few months, where I began administrating two
OpenBSD servers for the time span of half a year (I've used OpenBSD for
a month during the period) only to then quit afterwards. I've
reinstalled FreeBSD about six times, all related to the storage chip
going berserk, and even went to use Arch for only a week, to my dismay,
which lead to me returning to FreeBSD. Now, fast forward to April 2023,
I began administrating a server owned by a friend of mine, which used to
run Arch Linux for some inexplicable reason. Fast forward once again to
today, where I run it just about anywhere I can, chaotic.ninja runs
FreeBSD, the computers I attempted to repair also ran FreeBSD, and the
computer I'm currently using run FreeBSD, too. I can not think of life
as a computer person without a Berkeley Software Distribution system
now.
