That sounds like paradise. Where do I have to sign? I’m tired of crapware breaking on every “upgrade”.

    That's not correct - OpenBSD is being actively maintained. Although they're using a lot of old, stable and proven software, they're also doing security and bug fixes and even creating new functionality.

      He asked for stuff that does not break...not for abandonware. I would not recommend a OS that is not maintained for day to day work.

    I was just thinking that, if X.org truly were abandonware (I have no basis to accept or reject the opinion reported in this article), OpenBSD becomes a bit of a haven. My understanding is that Wayland does address some security issues in X11, but that Xenocara (OpenBSD’s branch of Xorg) also attempts to address the security of X11 in a way that integrates with the rest of OpenBSD’s security mitigations. OpenBSD is a great example of actively developed software that has exceptionally good taste when it comes to change. It’s not that OpenBSD never changes; it’s that OpenBSD only makes changes that feel organic 20 seconds after you experience them.

      >It’s not that OpenBSD never changes; it’s that OpenBSD only makes changes that feel organic 20 seconds after you experience them. Exactly! And Xenocara. And Upgrades are painless.
