taking a longer look at FreeDOS i kinda like it. It has clearly evolved
from its humble origins, and comes now with USB support, an apt like
package manager, Fat32 support and kinda everything you would otherwise
seek in a modern console based os. I think i will give it a try someday
in the future...

I do like FreeDOS as such, but I would argue that Linux is much more adaptable to human use. But well, I just like unixoid systems a lot.
I did start with MS-DOS when I was a kid, and I liked it back then, but it always had too many limitations.
