I couldn't have asked for a more correct, well-documented, and secure system. I took my hardened /etc/* files and added them to VCS for reproducing new environments quickly.

I first began following OpenBSD 6.5 and first deployed OpenBSD 7.5 for my side projects, and as of 7.8 I am using OpenBSD in production.

I've been using Linux as my daily driver for 10+ years. I'll probably stick with Linux on desktop but OpenBSD has virtually replaced all of my hosting. I recently spun up a new Linux VM only to power it down shortly after attempting to configure systemd... It just can't compare to rc(8).

I'll end this rant now. Some useful links/people that got me through the last couple years:
