OpenBSD users often face limited software availability due to its niche use. Offer a porting service that adapts popular tools for OpenBSD. Sysadmins and developers would pay for access to essential software on their preferred OS. Start by porting one widely requested application. The biggest risk is limited demand due to OpenBSD's small user base.
Port niche software to OpenBSD
Build a service that ports popular but unsupported software to OpenBSD. Target developers and sysadmins who rely on OpenBSD.
Why now
OpenBSD's security focus attracts users, but lacks ported software.
