Reminder that OpenBSD is lacking the following things: >A robust filesystem such as ZFS, btrfs, or HAMMER2 >Any kind of journaling FS >NFSv4 >Support for more than one core on various parts of the OS. The firewall, pf, is confirmed to be one of these parts, although there may be more. >802.11ac networking >Nvidia graphics from this decade >AMD Vega graphics >Certain Intel graphics, at least judging from comparing the manpage to the wikipedia article >Broadcom wireless >Bluetooth >WINE >and probably more
Things to take into consideration when planning to move from Linux to OpenBSD
It's not OpenBSD's fault that closed-source hardware doesn't choose to support it. I agree about some of the software issues you've listed though. >WINE Just use Windows if you want to run proprietary software.

>If you're using it as a daily driver, you're insane. Some are unironically considering this as a result of the Linux CoC situation. Not the worst idea ever, but with some very clear and obvious drawbacks.
