if you can use macOS, then use macOS. otherwise FreeBSD is an acceptable alternative. If you are in a position where freeBSD is not available, a linux distribution like Void is an acceptable choice.

What kind of loser uses BSD in 2016?

If you want a Unix environment, use Linux or OSX.

>>57479868
It comes with steam iirc, so any Linux steam game is natively supported
>>
>>57479881
There is an issue with compositor and window decorations that causes certain games to not work properly. That is why Unity/Compiz is favored as it does not cock block full screen games.

Gnome 3, KDE and Xfce/Compton caused crashes for most games I tested. So that is the concern, what compositor does Solus use?
>>
>>57479897
Not him, but I googled out of curiosity and it seems to use mutter?

I prefer OpenBox because of the following:
Well documented
Works well
Highly ricable
Minimum resource use on my older machines

Pro Tip: If you install it on Fedora, you need to play with the fonts an assload. Install Infinality from that guy's blog if you want to save time. Also, install obconf.

I guess it's a matter of if you're either the:

"I want my machine to just work"

Or

"I want my machine to work at its best"
Type.

Just removed my xubunu installation today. It's multi monitor support sucks. You have to reconfigure your display settings every time you detach a monitor. Add to this the fact that 'primary monitor' checkboxes don't do anything. These are probelms that should not exist in a modern os.
