Have you find yet anything that blocks you like you dont have some packages or anything on openbsd?

sorry if i offend you but i tried void linux and its kinda close to openbsd and many important for me packages werent avaible and i think openbsd has even less packages? sorry for my ignorance

Oh, I see. My apologies. I couldn't quite understand what you were saying back there.

Yes, there are a few packages missing. Notably, Micro, Mullvad Browser, and Librewolf are not in the repo or ports tree. I am also having trouble building mle from source, and of course things like Steam will probably never be available.

However, there are plenty of packages that can be substitutes for a lot of Linux software.

i love bsd vibes but i would have to spend so much time when i just wanna do my work, i think you know ;) Void linux was little bit too much for me so i cant imagine openbsd, actually im trying artix and i love some bsd-like things like doas instead of sudo, something other than NetworkManager, seatd turnstile acpid dinit runit etc...

I think they wanted to kow, whether you had any trouble using openbsd as a daily driver. Like missing software, libraries or other misc. packages that are not available on openBSD, when compared to other OSs.
