FreeBSD is a Unix-like operating system that has roots in Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD), which itself originated from research conducted at the University of California, Berkeley, in the 1970s.

The OS is known for its advanced networking features, security capabilities, and freedom-focused licensing, finding use in a wide range of hardware ranging from embedded systems to being the backbone of major cloud services.

Unfortunately, it looks like KDE's Plasma Login Manager won't be working on it, as an accepted merge request sees the focus turn to compatibility on Linux systems.

I would think that elogind should work? Is it hard dependent on systemd or logind? I thought it was the latter

    PLM is hard dependent on systemd.

    That's the part that confuses me, because allegedly GNOME has a hard dependency on systemd yet in Gentoo you can install GNOME without having to install nor use sytemd. I hope this new KDE login manager can work the same or a similar way, though
