Since I wrote my article "Why you should migrate everything from Linux to BSD" I have been wanting to write something about the technical reasons to choose FreeBSD over GNU/Linux and while I cannot possibly cover every single reason, I can write about some of the things that I consider worth noting. https://unixsheikh.com/articles/technical-reasons-to-choose-freebsd-over-linux.html
From time to time people email me asking about what kind of work flow I use for this blog. In this article I'll elaborate on the process. https://unixsheikh.com/articles/come-full-circle-back-to-html.html

So without further ado we will now stroll down memory lane and take a quick look at the origins of the Unix terminal and shell. And I will also give my advice to new users on Linux or BSD regarding the choice of terminal emulator and shell.
For many years I have been advocating passionately against the so-called "modern web" as it is really nothing more than a poor excuse for not using your brain and instead following the hype and trends of stuffing web applications with unneeded JavaScript and slow and crappy frameworks.

In my previous article "Why you should migrate everything from Linux to BSD", in the License problems section, I very briefly addressed one of the problems with the GPL license.
