A bit late, but wow openbsd developers use their own distro as a desktop, you convinced me. And yes I know it might sound weird but openbsd has a special use case. Its a security focused distribution aimed at developers which want to understand the workings of an OS. Its also used as a base for some router specific operating systems.

Everybody who used OpenBSD on the desktop knows it has its shortcomings compared to any other OS if your workload extends beyond simply checking mails and surfing the web.

has no special use case. Its hardened and comparably slower than Net- and FreeBSD

I have used all 3 major BSDs (Free, Open and Net). FreeBSD is ideal for servers due to its performance. OpenBSD is perfect for security appliances and NetBSD is perfect if you have exotic legacy hardware.

Funny that those descriptions contradict what these Distro actually aim to do. NetBSD is a the supposed performance oriented distro. FreeBSD should be able to do both, desktop and server. But your are on point with OpenBSD.

First sane comment here.

Using a security focused Distro which has its use case in network devices as a "daily driver" shows that you priorities are "elsewhere".

I haven't played Dota2 for years, but the toxicity was a reason I stopped. So I am not sure this thing is effective. I know its a tough task, but still I believe that if one developer can have better solutions to this, than it would be Valve.

I hope you are right, I really like the game and hope they have some interesting fix for toxicitiy and matchmaking.

hopefully, I just hope Deadlock doesn't get the Artifact treatment

no dotted zeroes = no terminal use

they would fit into the Deadlock development, imo

COSMIC is Rust, Iced, Smithay, Tiling, customisable, Wayland-only (and thus Wayland-first),

what is iced? i dont care about smithay, why should I? customisable as a feature? ever DE is except Gnome, I guess?
