OpenBSD does have pledge, on the other hand. And yeah, different systems have different features and tradeoffs; some people could legitimately say to take "Linux does everything that FreeBSD used to do for me" with a grain of salt, because that has not been true for them (say, if they like ZFS + boot environments, which is a relative pain on Arch).

I still haven't gotten boot from encrypted root pool with GRUB set up properly; it fails and drops to initramfs, I manually import and mount, after which it continues boots fine ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
