Whilst BSD isn’t linux per se, it still has a lasting legacy in the unix like space and notably has been used in game consoles like the PS4.

For you in your personal use case, have you tried a bsd distro? What was better compared to the average linux distro?

Apparently BSD is more modular with its jailing system and seems to have a lower resource usage.

I look at ones like NETBSD and FreeBSD and think, "what exactly do I get out of them that I wouldn’t with Linux say, Ubuntu or Void as an example?

What are your thoughts on BSD, you use FreeBSD before?

    You first sentence actually supports my previous statement, that OpenBSD is aimed at developers. :)

    Why would I “untighten” the hardening and not just use an OS which is more suited to my needs? Even for privacy, which is much more relevant for normal usage, there are better alternatives to OpenBSD.

      I never claimed that OpenBSD was aimed at the Average Joe, though.

      So whats your point?

        Here just a reading comprehension for my take

        Its a security focused distribution aimed at developers which want to understand the workings of an OS

        On which you answered:

        You’re just wrong.

        So idk whats your point either.
