On https://brew.bsd.cafe, I've configured and running it. Just download the latest release, unpack it and run "TAGS="bindata" make build" - It will compile and you'll have a working binary file (still called "gitea", but it's forgejo). Then, you can expose it the way you like it. Yes, you can almost follow the gitea guides, it's similar.
Comparative tests show FreeBSD's virtualization performance surpasses Proxmox, especially with NVMe drivers.
Since migrating many servers from Proxmox to FreeBSD, we have consistently felt that the VMs are more responsive. It's time to conduct some concrete tests.
FreeBSD has many hidden gems, including native support for booting in read-only mode.

Thank YOU for your help!
I've converted it into png and replaced the banner. Could you please check if it's ok?
I've just installed the banner you provided. It's much better now. Thank you!!!!
Thank you! I'll have a look at it ASAP.
That's the point. People feel safe when using those closed, expensive, proprietary solutions but all they have is losing control of their own data
I'm glad you like it. Sure, this setup can be used for a general Nextcloud installation as well

In 1996, with Linux. From 1998, I stopped using Windows. In 2002, I met the BSDs. After all these years, I am even more convinced that the only way to preserve data conservation, accessibility, and freedom is to manage and store them through open tools and protocols.
