There are some of us here who are interested in all things related to

_as a FreeBSD user_. You are of course not obliged to reply at all.
The fact that people often get better replies about "application X
running on FreeBSD" on FreeBSD list than on a native list/forum reveals
something good about FreeBSD community IMHO.
By posting here, the OP is more likely to get an answer from other users
who are using app X on FreeBSD.
Asking in the App X forum is likely to get an unhelpful answer from
*their* local curmudgeons: "No one here uses FreeBSD, and it's not a
priority for the App X developers. Go away."
My point being, getting App X working on FreeBSD is often a higher
priority for us than it is for them, and someone here might have already
gone to the trouble of figuring it out. I see nothing wrong in asking
whether that's the case.
