I asked ChatGPT about why I should use NetBSD instead of Linux, and for me the reasons of performance and portability don't hold up because Linux is more performant and more compatible with my hardware.

I can see why some might appreciate the simplicity of the base system and the design of pkgsrc but the former seems to be more in line with OpenBSD than NetBSD and its legacy cruft.

Upgrade to Linux 4 years ago

It would be great to have an in-place upgrade tool to install Linux from Windows without removing any files.

Disappointment and pessimism are nothing out of the ordinary, but the other symptoms you describe makes me think it's more complicated than that. It sounds like you might have depression, but I am not qualified to diagnose you. A therapist will be able to provide you with better insights for dealing with this than any of us can.

Have you sought professional help?
