Hey, As someone who works a lot with AI, I have to say that chatGPT relies on what it can find on the internet. The first page I found was from pfsense, claiming it to be the "world's most trusted open source firewall". The Dutch call this a "wij van wc-eend", a phrase made by a company to claim that their product is the best. I tend to use UFW, but I know people who use Shorewall and CSF. Its a case of "preference" and what you want to use the firewall for. Greetings, Julius On Mon, Feb 19, 2024 at 3:54 PM Klaas Tammling <klaas@tammling.hamburg> wrote:
Hi,
I mean just from a quick search there are a bunch of great opensource firewalls. Some more popular than others, depending on the use case.
The first one which would come into my mind is OPNSense, a fork of pfsense. I use it myself and it works great.
Another one could be IPFire and IPCop.
This site is in German but it lists a few, you could evaluate if you search for something new (not affiliated with that site): https://aware7.com/de/blog/die-12-besten-open-source-firewalls/
All the best,

Subject: Most popular open source firewall in the world
Good day from Singapore,
I am using pfsense community edition 2.7.2 firewall at home.
Recently I asked ChatGPT. ChatGPT says pfsense is the singular most popular open source firewall in the world.
Is pfsense really the most popular open source firewall in the world? If there is more than one, please provide a list of the most popular open source firewall(s) in the world as well. Preferably from well accredited sources.
Thank you.
Regards,
Mr. Turritopsis Dohrnii Teo En Ming Targeted Individual in Singapore
