I've used OpenBSD on and off for years, and have even donated to the project, but I personally use Linux (Debian or Arch Linux) these days. Specifically influencing my decision is that OpenBSD has issues on my current computer. Wireless networking drops after a certain amount of inactivity and with the most recent release, the mouse keeps disconnecting with a "wsmouse0 detached" warning. More generally, OpenBSD has always felt slower to me than Linux on the same hardware. It does not have a modern journaled file system and OpenBSD faces a free Unix software ecosystem that increasingly Linux specific. All that said, OpenBSD gets so much right. They care about security and documentation. They care about creating a good version of Unix. They care about software freedom. I could never fault someone for choosing it.
