I remember pfsense from them trying to merge bug ridden code into FreeBSD for Wireguard support.

The creater of Wireguard said it was bad with buffer overruns and they got angry for being called out.

The software seems to be the default open source firewall / router network admins go to, but it seems like a ticking time bomb to me.

They also seem to be pivoting to a closed source firewall / router project so this will result in less work going in.
