I said relatively fine because under Serbia, Bosnian muslims were genocided. Yes there is ethnic tension now, but nothing anywhere close to what it was three decades ago.

"Under Serbia", oh my. I'm sorry you have to comment on things you know nothing about. They're not ethnic but religious tensions.
When Turks left about 100 years ago Muslims were a minority but thanks to much higher birth rate they now want to set the rules in Bosnia. Serbs know that, that's why they resisted, and still resist, a unified Bosnia.
Ottoman Empire tolerated Christians, true, but to achieve anything in life you had to convert to Islam. Otherwise you could just remain a haraç-paying Christian peasant without any chance of education or growth. Haraç was a tax for being a non-Muslim.
It was super hard to be a thriving Christian under Turks. In fact the Turkish policy was to demographically and economically slowly bleed Christians and for those with ambition to convert to Islam.
