OpenBSD is often hyped for being a secure operating system. Mindless repeating that claim won't make it actually any better. I am waiting for someone to seriously compare security features of operating systems. For example, does OpenBSD's package manager the TUF threat model [1]? Last time I checked, it by default did not. Which means, any man in the middle can feed malicious updates.
