Comment (by RobK88):

 @neverpanic - On my Mac running openssl @3.2.0 or @3.1.4 , here is the
 output you requested?:


 {{{
 bash-3.2$  openssl version -r
 Seeding source: os-specific
 }}}


 FYI -- Here is a really good and recent article on entropy in openssl 3.0:

 https://lightshipsec.com/entropy-in-openssl-3-0/

 According to the aricle:

 `By default, “os” is chosen and it is essentially an alias of
 “getrandom,devrandom“.`
