This bugs me. I selected between pfSense and OpnSense a few years ago and got the impression pfSense’s support and UI was better. I’m not looking forward to having reconfigure everything if switching :/
I made the switch. It was a good excuse to clean up my config though.
I ended up installing it in a VM initially, just so I could configure it how I needed before going live. Then made a config backup, installed opnsense, then restored the config (after changing the interface names)
There are some convertors that can wrangle a pfsense config into opnsense. I had the exact same issue and exact same thought about two years ago. But I do like Opnsense much, much more nowadays.

Been very happy with OPNsense since switching a few years ago.

I’ll never go back to pfsense.
Tried OpenSense twice, always fell back to pfSense.
Plus, work gave me a rackmount Netgate appliance, so I’m on it until that unit dies.
