For those of us in Europe there is also https://openbsd.amsterdam/ (I mention them because one obvious reason to prefer DO is that they have locations outside California).

The most obscure OS I got working was SmartOS. The most obscure OS I heard someone got working was Windows 1.3.
I’ve got some OmniOS droplets running from a hollowed out FreeBSD droplet, too. Once you get the image/snapshot made with appropriate scripts to read the metadata it’s pretty easy to stamp out more.
prgmr.com has the openbsd installer officially available, as well as the netbsd installer and freebsd (both as an image and the installer.)
