Programming is Concrete Math and becomes more and more Math the less abstraction you expose yourself to.

Both are fields you have to engage in problem solving, the better you are in one, the better you are in the other.

Don’t confuse Math with pure arithmetic operations though, its just the base concept which provides the fundament you’re building upon as you dig deeper.

I for example was quite bad at Math up until I got interested in IT, because then I had a reason for learning and be excited about it, but I guess thats a heavily subjective thing.

Engaging with interpreted languages and solving problems on certain sites with those also helped in further developing my problem-solving skills, which made Math easier for me.

Use your imagination.

I bet my left nut it runs NetBSD flawlessly.

I never claimed that OpenBSD was aimed at the Average Joe, though.

So whats your point?

The best argument is that me and lots of other people use it successfully as a daily driver without any problems, because we obviously don’t lack certain skills you may do.

Your argument is totally random`and makes no sense, you could also claim that Linux is only for servers because its mostly being run on those compared to its Desktop usage and Windows or MacOS on Desktop systems, but you don’t, right?

Linus Torvalds himself doesn’t like Desktop Linux, although he uses Fedora, but that doesn’t make it any less justified as a Desktop OS, no?

OpenBSD comes with the possibility to run Xorg and you can install programs with GUIs like Webbrowsers, LibreOffice Suite, etc. And the performance constraints due to it being hardened can be untightened if you want or need to. You’re literally making things up here.

You’re just wrong. There is a whole community, including me, using OpenBSD as a daily driver.

You can mention more things turning YOU off from using it that way, but it won’t change shit, lol.

Im generally not a fan of this whole sensationalism thats popular on social media. Gives me yellow press vibes.

Lol, no. But hes of course using it now to generate traffic in his own favor.

Rene Rebe is doing everything to get some clout.

Kinda sad to see.

Thats when you’re out of arguments, ladies and gentlemen.

The equivalent of facebook boomers reacting with a laugh emoji.

But seriously: several people in the BSD community use OpenBSD on the Desktop, Theo De Raadt also does in contrast to a lot of FreeBSD devs that use MacOS as a daily driver.

Don’t know why you’re so full of yourself when you clearly have no expertise on the subject.

You clearly don’t know what you’re talking about. OpenBSD is an absolutely legitimate Desktop OS and has no special use case. Its hardened and comparably slower than Net- and FreeBSD, but thats it . Guess you’re an “expert”.

I use OpenBSD as my daily driver on the desktop.

In my opinion Linux over the years got too caught up in politics and involved with big corporations having influence on certain non-trivial decisions.

But I also think the BSDs are better actual Operating Systems in contrast to Linux being only the kernel of which different projects make use of to provide their final products to the end user, its way more fractured.

Vim actually IS easy to use once you get the hang of it, plus more comfortable and efficient.

Nanos just an excuse for lazyness, cmv.
