@tgeusch This is the uneasy feeling I had yesterday evening. I started writing the post this morning because I wanted to sleep on it. The original author did not write a bad or offensive post, and it reflects their experience so I respect that. Still, it feels more like a rant against a couple of people who behaved poorly or were unwilling to change FreeBSD because they believed there was a better way to do things.
Anyway, I am glad when people write these posts if they feel the need to. This way we get to see different points of view, and that helps all of us.@stefano Very good point that the original post wasn’t bad or offensive, and in a sense I wished the author had had a better experience.

@tgeusch Exactly.

This Isn't a Battle
After reading a post describing the FreeBSD community as 'toxic', I share a different perspective. This isn't a battle. It's a reflection on coexistence, the original Open Source spirit, and the quiet richness of taking a different path.

Stefano, this person is maybe a the bigger FreeBSD hater from many years...

@stefano I'm glad for you that you haven't had damaging encounters with toxic people in the FreeBSD community or their enablers.

@stefano I had a great conversation the other day with some FreeBSD folks about how to position it competitively when the user believes they need k8s instead.
Sure, plenty of k8s flame was thrown, but at the end we agreed that for the user’s particular needs (some workloads were Linux only codebases, multi-cloud deployment not cost-optimized) k8s was really a better choice than nomad+jails or a custom orchestration setup. -

A couple of days ago I proposed to a client a new virtualization server (actually three). It will be powered by Proxmox as the client needs a management interface and is moving some manually created KVM qcow2 files.
I'll probably propose bhyve when Sylve will be ready but, for now, their problem will be solved by using Proxmox. And I'm happy it will, and I'm happy to do it. -

@pauamma oh, I have. I never said that there are no toxic people in the BSD community. There are. But the majority is composed of great people, all around the world.
So I'd not say it's a toxic community because of some bad people. Even if toxicity should never be a part (even if small) of a healthy community. -
@ricardo I think discord.
@stefano @ricardo the article mentioned the FreeBSD subreddit and The FreeBSD Forums.
Yorick Peterse shared his post in the sub, where it was very well-received. Pictured: insights that are not visible to the public (I very rarely share such things, doing so seems harmless on this occasion).
No mention of Discord, Twitter, or X.
Also pictured: the wiki for FreeBSD Discord very recently cautioned that the FreeBSD Community Code of Conduct can not be enforced. I do not imagine that this caution relates to any recent misconduct there …

@Weco ciao e ben arrivato!! :)

Ciao! Arrivo qui dopo aver girato a vuoto altrove. Mi ha spinto un pensiero: vedendo cosa cercano gli altri da noi per ritrovarsi, ho capito che dobbiamo proteggere quel "qualcosa" che abbiamo sotto il naso.
Viaggio molto con la testa e cerco di capire come la tecnologia possa salvare ciò che è autentico e fatto con cura: più che un interesse, è una cultura.
Se preferite la cura di un pensiero alla frenesia del tutto e subito, andiamo d'accordo.

L’UE come gli USA, la stretta sui migranti irregolari rischia di innescare un modello ‘ICE’. L’allarme di 88 ONG

🔴L' #AI amplifica ciò che siamo disposti a pensare.
Se il cogito è debole, l'amplificazione produce rumore e l'individuo si perde nell'oracolo tecnologico.
Se il cogito è forte, l'AI diventa strumento riflessivo junghiano, spazio di confronto e banco di prova delle proprie idee.
Il cogito, il pensiero critico e l'elaborazione cognitiva, si possono allenare.

È arrivata la "bibbia" di Giovanni Lilliu.
Questo perché neanche tanto tempo fa @zabow (che ringrazio) aveva postato il link ad un interessantissimo documentario (in francese) sulla civiltà nuragica, con bellissime immagini e ricostruzioni virtuali. Da cui il dubbio: stai a vedere che l'organizzazione socio-economica dei nuragici era molto più avanzata di quella degli isolani attuali! 😄
Per togliermi ogni dubbio è tempo di studiare questa miniera di informazioni.
