So i was thinking about to give OpenBSD a try to see if it could fit a minimalist user like me. I know it's not made for desktop users, which is not my case(i use Dwm, a limited amount of packages and tweaking my system dosn't scare me).

Interestingly enough to point out, BSD was actually shaping up to be the free operating system kernel of choice until the UNIX wars and AT&T filing a lawsuit against BSD which made large enterprises use Linux as the replacement free operating system. Large part of Linux kernel's success could be attributed to this legal battle.
BSDs and even GNU Hurd have more cohesive architecture than Linux, a monolithic kernel, but Linux blew up as the free operating system of choice while attention drifted away from these other free kernel projects.
BSDs are also monolithic kernels no? But yeah the history is fascinating really. still holding out for the Hurd to emerge from the ashes of civilization
