Indeed, same here. I'm sure all of us have gone through it both for servers and desktops/laptops. On the personal front, as someone that started out on Windows, moved to Linux (KDE), but runs IOS, IOS XE, IOS XR, Junos and EOS for work, the best experience I could enjoy from a usable, brain-dead, simple GUI that still gave me a solid UNIX world is macOS. But for server-based services we offer to customers that we require be solid throughout the year, I moved from Linux back in 2006 and over to FreeBSD. I've never looked back. Everything has its place. The adage of "Gone are the days when men were men and wrote their own drivers" couldn't be more true for me in 2022. I am old and lazy, I don't want anything that stands in the way of my meat and wine :-). Mark.
