I've had OpenBSD on my laptop for a couple of years now, but I recently installed Void and have been very happy with it. It maintains a lot of the simplicity you get from a BSD. Although it doesn't have a lot of the advantages of OpenBSD security-wise, the performance is better and software compatibility is higher.
Void also has forgone systemd which I find to be a mandatory requirement for a linux system. It's why I left Arch for OpenBSD in the first place. I love the simplicity of runit (the init system Void uses) and their package manager is top notch.
- brobdingnagians 8y agoI've done the same thing; had OpenBSD installed on my desktop and loved it, but one piece of software I use wasn't supported very well on it, so I had to go to Void and avoid systemd, but pleasantly happy with the experience. I virtualize OpenBSD so I can have the same environment as my servers.
