Just one missing word and we're good to go.
Thanks for working on keeping this updated.

I think there is a "like" missing after "past".

Any source backing this removal? I couldn't find anything about this migration. Is it internal knowledge?

Why removing TrueOS?

Instead of removing TrueOS, I updated the information based on the TrueOS webpage.

And the WhatsApp problem... I read the migration from FreeBSD to GNU/Linux in this url @mateusz_serveraptor.com, @bcr you know if we can take this information as correct?

Yes, it is true that they switched, so we can remove WhatsApp from this here.

This won't work and probably will not compile as it needs a "<link" tag before the xlink.

@bcr

It's a problem with the diff, the "link" tag exists:

<listitem>
  <para><link
      xlink:href="https://www.trueos.org">TrueOS</link>
    <indexterm>
      <primary>TrueOS</primary>
    </indexterm> - TrueOS is based on the legendary security
    and stability of &os;.  TrueOS follows &os;-CURRENT, with
    the latest drivers, security updates, and packages
    available.</para>
</listitem>

OK, you can commit it then.
