Ah, losing the 2.4ghz USB dongle ... Sucks. Feel you. :-(
Wireless Earbuds/Headphones are a legit use case.
(Still use bluetooth with iPhone every day, sadly, still addicted to the convenience of AirPods ...)
But I've got decent wired headphones for my OpenBSD setup. bonus: never have to charge them. ;-)
Even more curious now: what do you use the Nintendo Switch controller for on your computer? Have you got it hooked up to play games on your PC?
Or do you use it for robotics or other I/O?
Switch controller gets used for flight simming, just as a simple analog input that I can take to the couch (or bed). I've also got a wired pair of my wireless Audio Technica headphones, but I'm not confident that my DAC (or Bitwig for that matter) would work as well on OpenBSD as it does on Linux.
For desktop use, I don't think I'll ever end up on OpenBSD. It might power my gateway router one day, but the cost/benefit analysis falls through on hardware like a laptop or gaming PC.
Firmware backdoors in wireless chipsets are a really big attack surface, and disabling wireless at least gives you the chance to monitor five eyes activity on ethernet.
That's too bad. I might need bluetooth on keyboard, mice, headphone/earbuds, etc. OpenBSD seems so nice, but right now it is limited to running as a server, and not a desktop, which could be considered a good thing, as it focuses on simplicity. However, I do wish it had more hardware support.
EDIT: Running openBSD in a VM might get me the best of both world, with hardware support on host OS (linux/win) and the benefit of running OpenBSD.
It wasn't security really, it was just the entire stack being so complex and poorly maintained that it became insecure. If someone wants to go back and do things right, they're free to do so
