Anyone having experience ipfire compared to PF/opnsense?
I'm using opnsense but it's based on BSD and the hardware support for my PCengine APU2C4 NICs isn't so great, I've read Linux based Firewalls might have better support (=performance=throughput). Only getting around 60MBs with plain firewalling, no IPS etc.
Opnsense seems to be much more feature complete though and all my searches for switching between them find only posts of people going from ipfire to opnsense.

I went from OPNsense to IPfire 😎
Yes, it has less features, but most of the stuff in OPNsense is convoluted and rarely needed, and IPfire being a more standard Linux definitely helps customizing it further.
One of the big disadvantages of IPfire right now is that it is IPv4 only though. They plan to fix this for the next major release, but that is still a bit out I guess.

Thanks. Admittedly my whole stack is in ipv4 anyways, my ISP also only supports ipv4 for some reason and then I never bothered to get into v6 for my local stuff.
