NetBSD is great because: can support lots of hardware; minimal but featureful; secure; pkgsrc; friendly community;

It's like a good middle ground between Free and OpenBSD. Anyone into "minimal" linux distros might get a kick out of it.

Anyone interested should check out https://www.unitedbsd.com/ It's a bsd forum with a good number of netbsd users and a couple of developers as well.
