nothing has really changed in that respect.

FreeBSD developers and users should follow the great example of
Antoine, who has been hard at work to ensure that GNOME builds and
works on OpenBSD.

it's an undeniable reality that most of the developers in GNOME use
Linux, which means things get developed, tested, fixed, and designed
on Linux first. the only way to counter eventual breakage on other
systems is to work upstream.

ciao,
 Emmanuele.
