It's not too far off what you'd expect.  The 'pkg' system is quite similar
to what you'd see on Debian.  I find updating to new releases to be a lot
less painful than most Linux-based releaes.

If you've got an NVidia card X is a no-brainer.  Wine still runs well (I
had Windows Steam and various steam games running on FreeBSD just for the
hell of it).

But there's no systemd, and that's a mark of pride.
