When we start meeting in person again, maybe you will have the opportunity to attend a conference like BSDCan. If so, you will see lots of FreeBSD developers presenting with FreeBSD laptops. Like Dave, I also gave a presentation at a past BSDCan using a laptop running FreeBSD. For video conferencing, there are challenges with closed applications/sites like Google Meet, MS Teams, and Zoom. They do often work well from a FreeBSD system, but that's not always the case. I have had the best experiences with meet.jit.si. A positive development related to this discussion is that the Foundation has identified the desktop/laptop experience as one the areas to be targeted for improvement [1]. Some of the Foundation developers have received frame.work laptops and are working to get FreeBSD running well on those systems. We are also open to good proposals for funded work to improve the FreeBSD laptop/desktop experience. I can't speak for everyone, but I would prefer to be able to use my FreeBSD laptop for everything, but for some use cases, it's a work in progress.
