As a side note:
l never used FreeBSD, even though I've heard good things about it. Frankly, I loathe its devil logo. I know it's probably derived from the Unix "daemons", yet I fail to get reconciled with it. It's simply appalling to me (even if it's smiling) :(
I don't require any reply on my above comment (I might even be called naive or whatever). It's some kind of personal confession which I feel I need to express somehow. I simply wish FreeBSD people changed this logo at some point...
I wonder whether FreeBSD users are expressing similar concerns... I am not following any FreeBSD activity or discussion.
Cheers, Nick
There was a contest to change the logo a while (10-12-ish years) ago, and the official logo is now that:
https://freebsdfoundation.org/about-us/about-the-foundation/project/
However, that logo wasn’t universally liked by some core-members and it looks like the „Daemon“ is thus still in use.
The „Daemon“ is IMO somehow more approachable and „cute“ if you want to say that.
