Well and good. The ® slapped everywhere is very annoying.



Indeed. I don't understand why they do that (it was already like that before the brand change). It just scares away many potential users (people who have already used Linux, like open source etc.).

It's not like their management is clueless either. The project is sponsored by an advanced technology company (https://www.ixsystems.com/).


Their website isn't mobile friendly either: https://i.imgur.com/eZn7HEW.png note that fucking floating share buttons.


pc-bsd.org (Just as OTT with &reg) still seems to think TrueOS is the server flavour only. You'd think they'd make sure a rebrand shows on both sites at same time.

iX don't have ® all over the place on their own site, or FreeNAS so it must be a PC-BSD choice.


pc-bsd.org

Huh? Did you type that correctly? It takes me to a site titled SAMAA TV, that has lots of Arabic on it. Something from Pakistan?

Edit: apparently the computer centric site is http://pcbsd.org/


There are 21 ® on the front page alone! Insanity.
