Question for those who run OpenBSD on servers

Hi, OpenBSD lovers. About six months ago, I started building my server infrastructure on OpenBSD just for fun. I’ve made a lot of progress, updated many ports on my custom mirror, but haven’t pushed it yet, and tuned OS to fit my needs. I deliberately chose OpenBSD as my main OS, and I know there’s no Kubernetes or Docker; I’ve found other solutions that I’m comfortable with. Still, I keep wondering whether it’s actually a good idea to build server infrastructure on OpenBSD instead of Linux.

Every time I see that, in Linux, everything seems to be solved with Kubernetes or containers and I have to look for other solutions, I start asking myself whether I’m on the right track.

A couple of times a month, I end up Googling and researching how other people use it, but I still don’t find much. So I’m asking people who use OpenBSD as a server OS — not as a router and not as a desktop system — do you like it? Does everything work the way you expected in production? Any surprises, good or bad?

Upload ports to the official mirror

Hi guys. I've built a couple of ports on my local machine because mirrors have outdated packages. And I tired of moving them to my local mirror.

How I can upload updated ports to the official mirror?
