Comment on How do I avoid becoming one with the botnet?
bitcrafter@programming.dev 2 days agoThanks, your comment is an antidote to my paranoia that it is impossible to do anything to address all threats. 😀
Given that your advice is very sound, I have a question: would I gain much by using OpenBSD? The conventional wisdom when I last checked is that it is the most secure unix-like operating system on the planet.

I don’t think you gain much from OpenBSD. It is focused on preventing vulnerabilities that are hard to exploit and unlikely used by botnets. Most dangerous are vulnerabilities caused by software misconfiguration. The OS cannot prevent your mistake. Also, in OpenBSD you will be unable to use modern containers like docker, podman etc.
