I have the old pre-mandoc version of #FreeBSD man available, which uses nroff (defaulting to groff), and this gets 41 lines but only when MANCOLOR=1.
The answer to 'Why?' is of course that both mandoc and nroff format things for a Teletype Model 37 paper terminal even when they are sending down a pipe and TERM=dumb.
Pipe the output of man vi immediately through col -b to see what you get when grep isn't fighting with Teletype Model 37 printer effects.

@rl_dane @codemonkeymike @glitzersachen I'm running #OpenBSD on an old Toshiba laptop. Suspend acted funny once or twice, but otherwise seems to be working, that being said I don't use suspend a lot.
I can say not enough thanks to OpenBSD for having crafted a reasonably smooth installation and post-installation process.
Otherwise, it did personally help me that I've switched from #Alpine Linux, where one also has to spend a bit of time in the tty and manually edit a few config files with vi or something else. -

Yeah, I wonder if Hombrew is used much at all on Linux.
Oh, I just remembered I was going to include cygwin's SETUP.EXE as a package manager (as it technically IS!) XD
Of course, this #blost was 1 hour's work, not 10, so it's pretty off the cuff and subjective ;)
I did skew heavily towards installation speed, and not just download speed, though. I wouldn't criticize an OS for not being able to afford crazy fast mirrors.
I posted the number of available packages for Debian (#RasPiOS), Arch (#CachyOS), and FreeBSD in this thread: https://polymaths.social/@rl_dane/statuses/01KRDSHN77A1505JP0VRXFC5BR
Package rollbacks would be a filesystem and OS-level feature, no? Like snapper on Linux and the boot environment selector (with ZFS) in #FreeBSD.

@rl_dane @sashin The problem is that #fuckFedora HAS taken a stand, a principled stand. They want to force #systemd, #gnome, #wayland down your throat. They have become the #microsoft of the #linux world. #dumpFedora and #goBSD.

@rl_dane yep! I learned about it through the #AdventOfComputing podcast, two of his early episodes were about it.

@rl_dane I really think that caps lock should have been a top-row key. (Although I get the historical reasons, involving and the original shift lock key placement. It physically held down shift, right? [Anyone on the #typewriters tag know?] )
I LOVE what Apple did to the Esc key, making it the size of Tab. I think if the Esc key were this large, putting it at the top-left feels right for the semantics of a 'back'/'cancel' button.
I get Vim/Vi users might not like that though 😀 -
