I see people talking about doas saying it’s just like sudo but with less features. I’m just wondering if there is any situation where you should use doas or if it’s just personal preference.

From what I hear, doas is more secure. I don’t think it matters though, as long as you keep your system updated. I use sudo still.
How is it more secure?
Afaik much smaller code base and as such easier to audit.
I think it’s because sudo only requires a password the first time on each shell.
sudo maintains ‘sudo state’ for 15 minutes. After that you need to enter the password again.
