u/Subnetcoding

Good time frame you are in,

So ive been a linux guy for over 10 years now and wanted to try a different os. I tried to install freebsd for the first time a week ago and couldn't get a desktop environment to work. I tried two different de's wayland, wayfire, et cetera, and x11 but they both kept freezing on me and my mouse and keyboard on my laptop wouldn't respond. so I ask is there a bsd distro out there that would be novice friendlyↃ̦ that I can look at how they did it to see if it works with my hardware and/or see if it was just my bad coding.
