    Current distros doesn’t support many hardware platform, despite being very well funded. Compared to OpenBSD. (NetBSD is too much, right? and it is not really usable.)

    Fedora: Only run on amd64, arm64, arm, ppc64le, s390x

    Debian: i386, amd64, arm64, arm, ppc64le, mips64le, s390x, riscv64 (testing).

    Alpine: same as Debian but no MIPS support

    There isn’t sparc64 support at all!

    https://www.openbsd.org/sparc64.html The other architectures that OpenBSD supports have benefited because some kinds of bugs are exposed more often by the 64-bit big endian nature of UltraSPARC.

    https://www.openbsd.org/want.html It is important to spread sparc64 around the development community, since it is the most strict platform for detecting non-portable or buggy code.

    OpenBSD: alpha, amd64, arm64, armv7, hppa, i386, landisk, loongson, luna88k, macppc, octeon, powerpc64, riscv64, sparc64 (all equally supported except Alpha)

    (VAX is discontinued after 6.9)
