OpenBSD 6.3 wasn't supposed to be released until April 15th, but everything is done (except the release song - no word on that, yet), so Theo says it's released. Usual raft of new stuff, and better ARM-64 support, which is getting closer to production-ready.

We are pleased to announce the official release of OpenBSD 6.3. This is our 44th release. We remain proud of OpenBSD's record of more than twenty years with only two remote holes in the default install.

  Some Linux still feels like this. You just need to use a very bare-bones distro without SystemD. I've been using and loving Void for months; it feels like FreeBSD but with Linux internals. Give it a try.

  Some things every Linux comes out of the box with, such as nicer virtual terminals, loads of filesystems, crypto, SMP, and much better support for hardware.

    More support != better support.
