i have not yet read any "popular" tech journo mention any actual or potential root security vulnerability associated with networking [or anything else], like i've read in fedi, wrt #GhostBSD . i've also not read, other than fedi, that 👻 is vibe-coded [which if true would certainly kill it for me].

for a complete numpty like me, it's just quite confusing. i keep abandoning the idea of trying 👻 due to potential risk, then being seduced again by articles like this 🤔🤷♀️😲 🤯

@MsDropbear42@infosec.space Maybe go ahead with #GhostBSD as the "gateway drug" :blobcatamused: into the BSD world. Then when you've "found your BSD feet" with it, hopefully easier to try plain #NetBSD or #OpenBSD. I think that's what I might do. I used friendly PC-BSD back in the 00s but no BSD experience since. (Switching not urgent yet as I'm on Linux Mint Xfce X11, based on a 2024 LTS release, so presumably much less likely to contain slop than a cutting edge release.) #FreeBSD #BSD #NoAI
