Hello. I am testing FreeBSD instances with long term view exactly 
because of "toys" in linux.

My idea is to have and keep OS for $purpose which is not bloated with 
$hacks.

C is fine and if it works on tests, I am going out from linux. Shiny 
things are shiny, but try to maintain those for 5 years when everyone 
adding a $feature every week. I am tired of those many shebangs like Go, 
Rust, whatever on production. It is probably nice to play, but you need 
stable things when getting older. Those my 50 cents and only point of view.
