Horses for courses - it's my daily driver for development and administration. To be fair though, I relegate the vast majority of consuming the web to a mobile device.
- prmoustache 2y agoFirefox is in pkgsrc so I don't see it couldn't be used for general web consumption. I think the only blocker might be the stuff requiring DRMs like streaming video services but since netbsd now supports VMs you could still run a linux vm for that.
- hakfoo 2y agoI threw OpenBSD on my old laptop this year and it was workable except for DRM video and the fact that my bank evidently used user-agent sniffing to decide it didn't like Firefox on OpenBSD (but Firefox on Linux or Chromium on OpenBSD worked fine)

- bch 2y ago> Because OS doesn't really matter here. Arguably correct, but I really do like the NetBSD experience when I am dealing with the OS.
