    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 πŸ—‘οΈ 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 πŸ˜‰ here https://pub.v32bis.cc/eurobsdcon.html

    I'm sooo proud of my first contribution to the #FreeBSD #Ports tree. Although it were only 3 characters. Although I don't understand what @dvl is apologizing for -- "I'm sorry, I did not mention this PR in the commit message."The only things I needed was an account at bugs.freebsd.org and this short chapter from the Porters Handbook. Wish I had time for getting more involved.https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/porters-handbook/upgrading/#git-diff
