I think a security-focused GUI Linux distribution using hypervisor isolation may be more secure in practice for desktop/laptop use than OpenBSD. OpenBSD base system is designed to be a very secure server OS, but this comes at the expense of requiring you to read a lot of docs and figure things out when you leave the base system. Drivers may be annoying and 3rd party software that expects Linux will not work easily. It is definitely far off the paved road. If you want your computer life to be an Interesting Challenge or Hobby, it’s good, but if you want to just get stuff done it may be frustrating. I suggest you look into QubesOS, which has put a lot of work and research into isolating GUI applications from each other using hypervisor. Its hardened Linux VMs with a hypervisor underneath and probably what I would pick if I wanted a “secure workstation OS”. It will probably work with more laptop wifi cards than OpenBSD. https://www.qubes-os.org/ https://www.qubes-os.org/
