OpenBSD does indeed have a different culture.
You are expected to try and learn on your own.
If you make that attempt and still fail, you will probably get some help.
If you have a problem with a port or hardware and clearly explain the 
problem with all the details needed, someone will probably help fix it.

If you just want to complain you will always get the same reply:
Stop your whining and submit a patch!
Good patches are accepted and committed.

Perhaps you could answer a Linux question for me.
I want the CORRECT answer, not an opinion.
Which is the correct Linux distribution for me to use?
