I almost never see any FreeBSD users taking pot shots at OpenBSD like that. Then look at the market share of both, and it makes more sense.

Then the more logical explanation is that FreeBSD is lagging behind exploit mitigations.

Keep in mind that Theo actually praises Windows and says that they're second after OpenBSD. If this was about being envious over market share, then that wouldn't make much sense.

It makes plenty of sense when you consider who OpenBSD's actual competition is. Hint: They aren't trying to target the desktop market.
