It's funny, most people are concerned with security (rightfully so). But my main frustration is the inability to fix the parts of my OS I don't like. It's just convient that most security professionals agree open source is the best way to achieve security as well.

No. Open Source Software certainly does have the potential to be more secure than its closed source counterpart. But make no mistake, simply being open source is no guarantee of security.
