Switched to FreeBSD at home as well and it was such a wonderful decision.
As a long time Linux user, what was unexpected and eye-opening was seeing how FreeBSD does things. Somethings better and somethings worse. The better things are WAAYY better. And, for many of those things that felt better, in summary it's really the culmination of the entire ecosystem. The whole package is just better to me. The cohesive system is really a killer app. Oh, and pf is great too.
I havn't given up on linux; it's just running as a VM in bhyve now.
I also run Freebsd on a Thinkpad T490 laptop. Works great.
