I thought OpenWrt was kind of dead. Everyone uses pfsense as their open source router.

Are you thinking of ddwrt? OpenWrt is alive and thriving

ddwrt is what I was thinking of

Can second the other comments. OpenWRT is alive and well in parallel to PfSense. Different use cases for each.

IMO, pfsense is for if you want to use an x86 PC as a router, while OpenWRT is for if you want your ARM-based commodity home router to run open source firmware.

it's not just for routers. you can (and should) use it on your access points.

I have six APs in my house for 100% WiFi coverage inside and outside my home.

I’m actually so incredibly lazy I use a firewalla purple. And I love it. You’ll never take it away from me! Hiss!!!!
