Hi Zaf,
I am an IT professional myself even though my daily work is far away
from the OpenBSD world, which is also the major reason I find OpenBSD
attractive.
I would say your reasons make good sense and so do your choice. It takes
time to learn but if you value the security-by-default philosophy then
you are the right place.
The way I see it there is no replacement for OpenBSD. If you should
consider an alternative, I would suggest to compare to other BSD
distributions and not Linux.
The contribution part of the community is another story though. My
impression so far is that a highly specialized technical knowledge is
required to be able to contribute at all. But as a user I guess only
basic UNIX skills are required.
Best wishes
