A bit of topic: I'm sure that most (if not all) OpenBSD visitors are pro users but a website redesign would make the 'conversion' more friendly for newbies.

  I find the openbsd.org site to be excellently laid out and presented. Most sites on the web would do well to take lessons.

    I like that the site has been about the same for 15 years[0] but using a slightly larger or more readable font, or increasing space between menu items wouldn't hurt. (Although maybe the current page works as a "ah, turned off by the looks, effin' hipsters" kind of filter) [0] the homepage has actually gotten slightly worse compared to around 2001 when I first saw it, https://web.archive.org/web/20010302003922/http://www.openbsd.org https://web.archive.org/web/20010302003922/http://www.openbs... as the list below "About OpenBSD" now is messed up with one or two elements per line for unexplicable reasons

  OpenBSD's website is kept this way explicitly out of spite for people who whinge about it.
  • cwyers 10y ago
    Honestly, that kind of spite isn't encouraging if one is deciding on an OS to use.

      What exactly is wrong with the current OpenBSD website? It looks fine on the desktop and its ok on the iPhone.

      I don't disagree, however OpenBSD's opinion is "We don't care if you use it. We write it for us and it works for us." (paraphrasing).
