Is it easy to migrate pfSense instances to OPNSense?
How does security patching compare?

Migration is really a complete reinstall and rebuild of your rules. I took a backup of my physical pfsense box and restored it to a VM then reinstalled opnsense on the physical hardware. With the pf box running in a vm I could just reference it while creating new rules.
I think someone made a script to load a pfsense backup onto an opnsense instance but I really think you’re better off with a clean slate.
Kind of a pain, sure, but I felt better knowing it was a fresh build and everything was where it should be.
