Quick note about android blocking sideloading (as Techlore pointed out in their recent video):
if you’re running a custom rom that doesn’t use google play services system-wide, you’ll be safe from this and still be able to download any apps you want from any store (grapheneOS users can sleep well tonight).

that said tho, i imagine that’s not a whole lot of people, and sideloading a custom rom is getting especially harder these days (looking at you Samsung).

Software in FreeBSD/GhostBSD isn't ported from Linux. It is built from source just like on Linux. In fact, if you use the FreeBSD ports tree, you will get the latest software available. There is also a Linux emulation layer on FreeBSD for any software that you can't find.

The downside to FreeBSD is that it doesn't have the same level of hardware support as Linux. If I could get FreeBSD to run on a laptop as well as Linux, I would drop Linux in a heartbeat.
