BSDs are a family of operating systems derivative from Berkley Standard Distribution.
While not a popular as GNU/Linux, they are the defect descendants of the Unix Operating System.
This site is dedicated to two of those systems: FreeBSD, and OpenBSD.
Those are the systems I daily run on my personal computers and servers.
And, while they come with significant problems, it's very easy to fall in love them.
## History of BSD {#history-of-bsd}
Short history of how came to be.
- [BSD history](/bsd/history/)
## FreeBSD {#freebsd}

Beastie, the BSD mascott
{{< /img-r >}}
FreeBSD is the oldest living BSD system.
It's full of features which I found essential to my happy computer usage.
It's hard to live without ZFS or Jail system.
Here are my guides to those features:

### FreeBSD on a Thinkpad X1 Extreme Gen2 {#freebsd-on-a-thinkpad-x1-extreme-gen2}
I run FreeBSD on my personal laptop.
This comes with significant problems: battery life is bad and WiFi is a hit miss.
You can find some of my wins bellow:

## OpenBSD {#openbsd}
{{< img-r "openbsd.png" >}}
OpenBSD Logo
{{< /img-r >}}
The sites you are browsing is running on OpenBSD.
The idea behind this idea is to make it security-first.
And this is what the system achieved: the most secure OS I know of.
It comes with a lot of interesting (and strange) things, so it's also an interesting experiense.
