Came here to post this as well. Only started down the homelab / self host route and this developer helped me tremendously. In his post, they say they’re on hospice and that development will slow. If it brings you joy Godspeed, but if not, you owe the community nothing. Thank you and may you be as comfortable as possible.

This is sad to hear. Getting into homelab, I rolled my own -- but quickly found myself setting up lxc's with tteck. Incredible resource.

Here's his update:

@dang, can the root link be changed to point to this? Seems to be more relevant.

Thanks—we've changed the url to that from https://github.com/tteck/Proxmox/discussions/4025.

Cancer of the appendix? Never heard of that one before. How often does it occur?

Apparently extremely rare, 1 to 2 per million per year in the US:

I had confused it with pancreatic cancer in my head, given the extremely fast timeline :(

There are around ~3,000 cases per year in the United States[1]. Since cancer is the result of cell division gone wrong, it can develop pretty much anywhere in your body. However, areas where cell division occurs more frequently are more common.

It's a sad day for our community

May you be at peace where ever you are.
