I have concerns in regards to FreeBSD starting to become a “user friendly” OS, my first gripe was when FreeBSD 10-RELEASE was announced/released which meant “pkg” became the global command instead of pkg_*
Although I understand it is trying to make things easier, it makes me feel dirty, it makes me feel as if it is heading towards the user friendlyness of a typical “Linux” OS, with a full blown easy to use package manager which results in people using more precompiled binaries and not utilizing ports.
Using precompiled binaries means people are going to become more lazy by the day and run applications with more flaws in and features they are not going to use, the end issue being poorly optimised applications.
