If you're really interested in trying FreeBSD as an Ubuntu alternative, GhostBSD is your best option. I don't think it's a great full-on replacement due to poor OpenRC (its init system) support among devs, but it's the easiest Ubuntu equivalent to start out with.

Well, to be honest, I just wanted to see how different FreeBSD actually is to Ubuntu and similar Linux distributions, both when using it in the terminal and when using it as a desktop, but thanks for your suggestion, anyway. I might check it out later.
