That's also US controlled.

I guest some sort of custom BSD?

Is anyone using BSD as a desktop by the way? Ive only been focusing on Linux.

Very few

Honestly I don't see much point in BSD. Weak licensing and the BSDs are all different. Wayland and systemd are probably nails in the coffin as neither of them will ever work on BSD.

systemd maybe, but people are already running Wayland on FreeBSD and OpenBSD
