Once a network operator at AS20621, I discovered my passion for #FreeBSD and #illumos. Today, I focus on #DevOps and development in Python and Rust, contributing to #Ansible, #Proxmox, #Debian and #GardenLinux. My current journey explores the future of computing with #RISCV, testing it both in evaluation and production.

Projects:
#BoxyBSD.com: A free VM hosting service to provide some value back to the community.

#ProxLB: (Re)Balance your CTs/VMs across your nodes in your Proxmox cluster. ProxLB is a dynamic resource scheduler for Proxmox which rebalances objects to other nodes in cluster based on CPU, memory or disk resources.

#manpageblog: A static blog generator in manpage design, written in Python.

things changed a lot during my time in the Fediverse - but YOU were the reasons by providing BirdUI for Mastodon to give Mastodon a try and to stay in the Fediverse. Without it, I’d have dropped in the early times… thanks a lot for creating and also for still maintaining it!

"Just" 8 years :) My first NVMe are already starting to report the first issues after just 2 years (and no, they're not "noname" ones).
Btw, was it a consumer SSD?

nice, almost the current BoxyBSD way for PVE nodes :)

as always, highly depends on your personal needs. I'm a huge Proxmox fan, but there're of course several different cool solutions. Next to #Proxmox, I also often use #incus [0] in personal labs but I'm also a huge fan of #XCPng with #Orechstra. #SuseHarvester 's [2] approach is also a great solution (similar to #Platform9) if you want to go into the modern world (in the end, they're also using KVM). If it's just single node, I really would also consider #bhyve on #FreeBSD (maybe even via #ClonOS / #cbsd).
