Not just simplicity but consistency also. The file system layout, configuration file syntax, and man pages are just far more coherent. Using Linux a lot then trying OpenBSD, after getting familiar with the general layout, it's clear OpenBSD is more rigorous with where files go and the system as a whole. I had some trouble setting up a network connection with my ISP. My ISP does not share technical connection details favouring you just plug in their provided router. Never doing Kernel dev or C before, I was able to go into the OpenBSD kernel code, spot the logline I was seeing in the logs, see why my config was failing by checking the logic and fix my config. This was only just after trying OpenBSD for the first time and being extremely unfamiliar. The sad thing is outside of my router, I've not found an opportunity to run OpenBSD. On servers, I mainly use NixOs for declarative setup. Also, with Docker being ubiquitous today, I need to be able to run containers natively serverside. The same for the desktop, if I switch from OSX to OpenBSD, I'm making a few sacrifices with not much advantage as a desktop user, but if I switched to Linux, at least I'd get native Docker support to compensate for some of the things I'd lose not using OSX anymore.
