source?
openbsd was just an example. other distros and os do patches all the time including changing features but only debian gets called out.
Re:3D printing on OpenBSD? Yes, that’s a thing on Thursday September 14, 2023 @09:15AM (#37508585)
given also they port a really old version of prusa im not surprise. i bet 100% octoprint not make it, or new version, because they are scared to update deps for reasons. openbsd port people also no share patches upstream and probably "too hard" to port in current form with many patches.

rust lang shifts the digits right by 1 so minor (second spot) == major in their eyes meaning always breaking and nobody hit 1.0+ because they are scared of not changing thing or misunderstand semver.

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

ya doesnt seem to compete with helix or vscode anymore to justify price hense question
