I’m just trialling FreeBSD after probably more than 10 years of linux.

Setting the DNS so that I can run a VPN and not have DNS leaks took me about an hour. This is including random/wrong internet searches, finally deciding to look up the manual, finding the right heading and implementing it. So far so persistent.

I remember trying to do the same in linux over various days / weeks and eventually giving up and using the VPN provider’s app (begrudgingly).
