What Do You Use FreeBSD For?

My daily driver is Firefox, Office, Gimp/Photoshop on nVidia 4060ti.

I’m just getting started with MX Linux XFCE as an out of the box install.

Don’t need or care about Wayland and all the endless video and other problems I see reported here. At my late stage in life i just want something that works without tinkering with it.

My general impression is FBSD isn’t foremost a GUI desktop but instead a foremost cmd system with a GUI add on that requires tinkering. Perhaps this is mistaken or not but I shy away from FBSD as a GUI desktop because I don’t want the hassle of tinkering and compiling.
There's front-end and back-end for application. Advantage of front-emd is that you can also use it to run 20 terminals while compiling on desktop #2. Common users have no idea so who cares?
