Hi Swjatoslaw;

If you install FreeBSD, you only get a command line interface (terminal), an=
d then you can choose to install a graphical interface by "pkg install xorg g=
nome3" etc.

If you want a graphical interface to just work out of the box, I would recom=
mend TrueOS, which is based on FreeBSD but provides some nice default instal=
led packages and also a few customised items to better match a desktop use c=
ase.
https://www.trueos.org/

I use FreeBSD on my desktops/laptops personally, because I know my way aroun=
d the system and don't mind putting in a bit of effort to set it up the way I=
 like it. However, it does take some effort.

Regards,
Ben=
