Pretty much all the "necessary" things do work on BSD, Linux has turned into a gaming OS for me, like Windows had been before 11 was so bad I just couldn't do it anymore.
I pretty much use office stuff, and multimedia things, with games thrown in now that I've ditched Microsoft completely. Figure Linux could stay on a handheld, like a Steam Deck, and consider it a toy like I had WIndows from 7 to 10 when it was at least functional. There is Linux emulation on BSD, too, and I see a setup guide to run the native Linux Kodi port on it.
