Gregory's ServerDid anyone try #OpenBSD (and/or #FreeBSD, #NetBSD, etc.) as the main OS for a #RaspberryPi? I have a Model 3B+ and I wonder, whether it works smoother than Debian/Ubuntu. And, if you tried BSD on your Pi, which distro have you found works best?

 @kytta @RussSharek I ran an OpenBSD pi for a while. It worked, and was stable, but iirc a little tricky to get set up initially. |
@kytta hi,
I did use openbsd on my pi3 as a server. Worked very well, no issues except the slowness of the OS. I saw (after replacing i with Debian) that the cpu freq could be tuned up...
I then have to find the time to reinstall it.
PS: I have Openbsd running on a pi400 as my desktop OS. No hardware acceleration, no graphic drivers except simple framebuffer but it does the thing for what I do (web, music, writing).
