    The new @BoxyBSD portal is absolutely awesome and I really, really love it! I was able to get two completely free VPS instances running #FreeBSD in Germany and Japan.Just one click, choose location and which BSD like FreeBSd, NETBSD or OpenBSD flavour you want and just 3 minutes later the mail popped up in my mailbox that it's already present.I do not know how @gyptazy is offering this but my boxes already run for over 2 years completely for free and I have never seen anyone complaining about anything. Looks like he really created one of the best free services - even it is more intended for educational purpose. The new portal is amazing and already works without any bugs (so far I could not find any).This evening is a big thank you to you @gyptazy

    Don't be a fool (like I was) when it comes to #jails on #FreeBSD. I ignored them despite using FreeBSD for decades, because I had no problem that could not be solved w/o them and thought "why learn yet another technology I barely need".But it's not only about solving problems. It gives you a super lightweight and fast tool to test things (and trashing ๐Ÿ—‘๏ธ them with zfs destroy) without cluttering your configs or interfering with production services.E.g. I hesitated to run a webserver for publishing content because I didn't want a publicly accessible Apache on my mail relays, nor on my Nextcloud instance at home.With jails, the MX is left unmodified. If I feel like it I could move it to a different system just using tar or cpio or zfs send.All I needed to accomplish that was a few shell scripts to initially generate a jail template and, of course, the invaluable book "FreeBSD Mastery: Jails" of @mwl .What motivated me to get started? All thespeakers at #EuroBSDCon showing what incredible things they do with Jails. Especially >>IMUNES: A Network Emulation and Simulation Tool Built on FreeBSD<<.If you want to watch the IMUNES talk you can find the link on my jailed webserver ๐Ÿ˜‰ here https://pub.v32bis.cc/eurobsdcon.html
