What do you mean by “OSR”? Not just asking what the acronym means, but what does OSR mean to you? E.g. only D&D versions older than 20 years? What about Traveller (SciFi, not D&D compatible)?
By mindset I assume stuff like “don’t be too attached to your character because death is likely” and “GM is impartial referee and must never fudge a roll”.
The future of TTRPGs is the OSR
Fite me

I’m not a purist. I like old school D&D, the modern clones, NuSR and all sorts of RPGs.
It’s more the mindset than the system for me.

You’re barely scratching the surface, but you’re kind of on the right track.
Search for the “OSR Primer” with your favourite search engine, it explains it better than I can.
