That one is not a Linux problem, though - if any such software ran on BSD, the vendor would be likely to stifle it in the same way.

And otherwise, I don't know what software you're thinking of that is easier to deploy on BSD than on Linux.

To be blunt, the only reason this is a problem on Linux and not BSD is that no relevant software runs on BSD at all.
