Jim Salter has an article in Ars Technica discussing his experience
with FreeBSD 12.1 as a desktop:

There are some points in there that might involve misunderstanding,
but there are also a number of real issues raised about the experience
a new (or newish) desktop FreeBSD user will have. It will be a good
idea for us to examine these, and offer advice or corrections if
appropriate, and otherwise look how we can improve the FreeBSD
experience for new users.
