I'm confused.
Every other minor release of FreeBSD is supported for 2 full years, with no
new features added, just security fixes (aka Extended Releases).
And every major release of FreeBSD is supported for at least 4, somtimes 5,
years.
Canonical just shortened their support for LTS to 3 years,
tems are booted, all modules
are loaded, and the system is ready for use.
Just comparing ls output of default FreeBSD/Linux installs isn't useful in
any way.
