I prefer microcontrollers with no OS at all. Everyone of them is over bloated with features I don't need. I do prefer Linux.

True. Microcontrollers do have too many features. Teensy is bloatware. Just connect up a few transistors. That's how I access the internet.

We could make that into a kind of compitition. Fewest transistors to connect to a router over ethernet and post hello world to some part of the internet.

What about BSD. Hell, you can bootstrap a linux kernel and get a lot done with very little overhead. It is sad that there's no well-maintained, super-minimalist linux distro with no B.S. I know you can compile one yourself, but it'd be nice to have a more hands-off minimalist experience.

Depends on which BSD. OpenBSD is where it's had, since they aren't cucked.

FreeBSD has a Code of Conduct (written by that trans guy) and has previously allowed Randi Harper (freebsdgirl) to roam free, destroying whatever she wants.

As for a minimal Linux distro, Raspberry Pi offers a pretty striped down version with no GUI interface. I use this a lot. Honestly, I've not tried BSD. I'm sure I'd like it. Typically, I do a lot of edge computing projects and BSD isn't usually an option. I understand FreeBSD is available for Raspberry Pi, however, I understand it doesn't fully support all its peripherals.
