I wanted an OS that I could truly own. Most modern systems have become server-controlled clients, bloated with dependencies (Gtk4/Qt/Rust/Wayland) and centralized source control on GitHub. If you cannot audit the dependency tree and Big Corp controls the source, it is no longer real open source.

I built OneManBSD to address this. It is an OpenBSD-based system built on a single 2012 ThinkPad L430.
