Once upon a time, I was probably in high school, I had time to try out everything. I was a happy Slackware user at the time, but tried all the BSDs as well (been running FreeBSD as well for a while). For some reason I always remembered OpenBSD as the most pleasant of all OSes I tried, I don't know why.
But yes, then work happened... Windows, then OSX and Linux... Years passed by. I was buying MBP after MBP every couple of years, as they would break down for various reasons, becoming obsolete, impossible to fix... but hey - the employer always paid for the last MBP, and ... isn't MBP the default tool for a programmer?
But now, no more. I am slowly transitioning to OpenBSD and I am not getting any job that provides free MBPs. Those things are simply disgusting.
On the topic of alternative operating systems, for Linux, NixOS is where it's at. It's not "simple" though, like OpenBSD, but it has other great properties.
