Linux if you don't understand why you would want BSD. BSD if you do.

I don't know why this got downvoted - it hits the nail on the head IMO.

OP if you even have to ask the question ... go with Linux, seriously.

It is more popular, has more support and I'm 100% certain you likely aren't doing anything niche or special enough for any of the BSDs to give you a competitive edge.

People don't like answers thank make them think, they need easy answer, use B but not A and that's it.

Totally agree with you, the author of the comment is absolutely right. The question couldn't get better answer.
