y'know, one of the few things that's holding us back from trying out a bsd is that we really like the long options in gnu coreutils, even if we mostly just use them in scripts and not interactively

but that's exactly when we won't have ls aliased to exa or whatever other replacement tool for the other commands

i suppose we could stick a wrapper script for every single utility on PATH but that's ... a lot

@starfall the only things holding me back are primarily (a) linux has musl and i love how little memory and storage static musl binaries use, and (b) i would insist on using openbsd for whatever reason and hosting usually doesn’t set that up for you
