Yes, roughly a year and a half ago. I was looking for a new distro/OS to try out, and I was trying to decide between FreeBSD and OpenSUSE.

In the end, what did it for me was the software support. While yes, FreeBSD has a Linux emulation layer and yes, most Linux software I used either worked fine through it or had a port of its own, I still needed to use Slack and a few other Electron apps which, at the time, weren't supported - so I ended up on SUSE (while I could have used at least Slack through Firefox, I learned that it's just a recipe for om nom nom delicious RAM and crashed browsing sessions).
