absolutely not. openbsd decide to reinvent the wheel for their own bubble let them pay. you say server is openbsd only too in post. maybe not you but other openbsd devs dont give back either (despite project docs and policy) and even change the openbsd docs to no longer say contributor should give back to upstream (this is documented). why should there be trust this will care about others and the money is for this specific development?

tldr prove its not another openbsd NIH project and people outside openbsd care or f off

[rollcat]

OpenBSD regularly produces "NIH" projects that the rest of the industry adopts, takes from, and (usually) never gives back. Even where not commercially successful, projects like GoT or LibreSSL ensure we're not living in a monoculture.

If you don't have anything kind to say to them (even "thanks" would be more than most people can be bothered with), then better don't say anything.

Imagine telling a FOSS developer to “f off”? This language and sentiment has no place on HN.

Edit-Read the commentators other comments. They’re almost exclusively negatively targeting OpenBSD since 2021.

There are lots of GPL zealots that hates anything BSD.
