Your story has some similaries to mine. Shortly after I started using Linux I did some research into BSD and was greatly intrigued, but Linux worked well so I left BSD alone as something to perhaps try later. Then with experience my knowledge about using Linux increased over time. Thus, I became very comfortable with it and had no desire to learn another system. Although I did keep track of what was happening in the BSD camp, because I found the design and philosophy very interesting. Shortly before systemd became a debate issue I noticed the direction Linux development was heading and did not like it. (Systemd is not the problem. It is a small symptom of a big problem. I shall not elaborate on my feelings, because I do not want to engage in Linux bashing.) So I finally decided to give BSD a whirl and have not looked back. At the time found myself asking the same question you are.

Now I ask myself why I didn't adopt BSD earlier.
