GNOME became a desktop environment that doesn't fit to the needs of many

I understand the issue, that if you use a media, that by default should
install KDE, but I'm uncertain if your question is really rhetorical,
resp. I assume you are not aware that many people today prefer Xfce
and/or LXDE for good reasons.

I see some advantages for the user space on FreeBSD installs, but IMO
Linux has got advantages over FreeBSD (the kernels). The advantages for
user space are some old faithful apps, that aren't polluted by odd ideas
from upstream yet, since they are outdated. And I like the "dump"
command that does make a snapshot and enables to backup a running
system.

What I dislike for FreeBSD is missing real-time ability for audio and I
prefer ext file systems and averaged partitioning.

What features are you missing for Linux?

[Done]

You're already involved in the community ;).

I'm interested to read about Debian's FreeBSD too. I still prefer Linux,
my FreeBSD install isn't maintained, but it's nice to have a choice.
