Unfortunately, they are the only ones like that I know. Most other I encountered just peddle products for their financial gain. Snake oil salesmen.
I am aware I live in a dictatorship which drove a lot of smart and good people away from the country, skilled doctors and nurses were among the first to go. Hopefully it'll get better once we overthrow the dictator.
When more ethical entities take over their business I will gladly start using them once again, as I did back in the day before they turned evil.

So far we have been able to pause it, but evil never sleeps. Hopefully we overthrow traitors on next election. Won't be easy as all media turned into propaganda brainwashing machine, protesters are being run over by cars driven by pro-government thugs who are being pardoned by president, and instead of being jailed for attempted murder they get promoted, are being given high political functions, and celebrated as defenders of the nation.
Polluted cities getting cleaner for some. Clean rivers and beautiful forests getting poisounous ore pits for others.
In the long run, after investing some time into learning actual BSDs I find editing a few config files much more convenient than clicking around in web interfaces.
OpenBSD is great for a router.

I guess not officially supported but I use them, they work well.
But what can you expect from people who provide services but won't even try to understand how they work and how they are configured as it's 'not fun enough', expecting claude code to do it right for them.
Asking AI to do thing you did 100 times before is OK I guess. Asking AI to do thing you never did and have no idea how it's properly done - not so much I'd say. But this guy obviously does not signal his sysadmin skills but his AI skills. I hope it brings him the result he aimed for.
Any government who denies this to their national minorities should be promptly replaced as this kind of disrespect to other peoples' culture, religion and national identity inevitably leads to bad outcomes.
Author of the article seem to know what they are doing so I'm puzzled why they don't use `bsdinstall jail /path/to/jail` to implement basejail instead of manually unpacking archives.
No need for separate custom rc script to start `lo1`, it can be done with `cloned_interfaces` directive in rc.conf.
Updating and upgrading jails by passing `-b /path/to/jail` to `freebsd-update` works, but new recommended way has lately been `-j <jailname>`.
Cool article overall, the beauty of FreeBSD is also in possibility to do things in many different ways.
Current mainstream global narative, along the lines of "Eurasia is in war with Eastasia. Eurasia has always been in war with Eastasia" is trying to convince me that the history I had been thought was a lie. So far I'm not convinced.
About PS: indeed, outfit looks similar (but not identical) to uniform of Yugoslav Pionir https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_of_Pioneers_of_Yugosla...
XMPP is traditional IM. I use it exclusively from Conversations client on Android / GrapheneOS and it is really instant, supports presence (knowing whether contact is actually online), rings for audio and video calls, gives feedback about whether user read the message etc. I use it mostly for 1:1 conversations, it has all but replaced SMS and phonecalls.
I consider matrix more like 'fast forum'. Perhaps things changed but last I checked (from element on Android / GrapheneOS) there was no presence so I have no idea whether contact will get my message immediately or not. No confirmation that contact read the message. Audio and video calls not working, not even ringing when phone is locked. Quite laggy in message delivery.
So, after some years of using both, XMPP is best for replacing one-to-one SMS, video and audio calls, while I enjoy hanging in public matrix rooms, treating them like '(not really) instant forums'.
I enjoy having morning breakfast in the park, drinking yoghurt straight from the bottle. When I shake it, yoghurt sticks to the cap. When caps were removable, I'd put it aside so that yoghurt that stuck to the cap does not spill on my shirt, re-screw it after I finish and throw bottle and cap to the bin. Now it's hard to remove the cap and I spill yoghurt on my shirt frequently, so I go to greater lengths to tear the cap away and re-screw when I empty the bottle.
But I happily DJ on Saturday in a local club from 10PM to 4AM, help with carrying beer cases, setting up cables and equipment, for free.

The track was quite popular so they made another one about Wartburg.
