100%. I put off learning/using OpenBSD for a decade until a breach at a client (we weren’t responsible for DevOps/SysAdmin) made me pick it up because I don’t have time to be a full-time Linux Sysadmin anymore. Just want the servers to run without having to think about them. Wish I’d done it sooner. Lost at lot of time on Linux, Docker, K8s, etc. that I could have skipped completely with OpenBSD. Our servers are an order of magnitude simpler now, just single services per VM and I sleep better. ;-)
