    Cool 😎 Anything developed fro FreeBSD can be ported to Linux if needed.
    Unfortunately improvements made on Linux can’t be ported back.
    This is due to the license terms, But this is also the reason IBM, Google and many others have to contribute back to Linux, and Apple doesn’t to FreeBSD.

        I was completely unaware of that, but it checks out:

        No doubt FreeBSD benefit big corps, but big corps have problems benefiting FreeBSD.
