chimera definitely goes for its own type of experience, the source of the core tools does not make that much of a difference in that (they were mostly chosen for other reasons anyway)

that said i was a freebsd user for over a decade so it must have left some mark (even though generally the systems have little to do with each other in their general design)

People may not know that you are the creator of Chimera Linux.

There does seem to be a lot of BSD influence over Chimera with the BSD userland, Clang / LLVM toolchain, lack of glibc, and cports.

Regardless of the inspiration, the design choices in Chimera are great. Being able to standardize on things like Pipewire and Wayland without legacy. Working to bring the functionality of systemd without the monolith is great too. I hope Turnstile catches on.

ZFS on Chimera as well of course...
