Just as a precursor to this.. I don't consider freebsd an alternative
to Devuan partly because of freedom related issues since they're happy
to accept binary only drivers there.

I have no problem with binary drivers. I am not an ideologist. I like the concept that Kernel and User Land are of one piece. Everything centrally coordinated, no wild growth as under Linux. Of course, they adapt many things from the Linux world, because otherwise many software just would not run. Basically, I think BSD is much better. In real operation, however, there are 2 problems: many laptop functions are still immature, e.g. Suspend / Resume, and the software offering is even worse than under Linux. For example, there is no Virtualbox or VMware Player, which is important to me for a few Windows programs that do not exist for Linux.
