       @radhitya I just wanted to try another #BSD to see how the things done in it and how much it differs from #FreeBSD The choice was between OpenBSD and #NetBSD — the second attracted me with wide range of supported devices and processor architectures. This is rare enough in the modern IT where the words "this is obsolete" and "this project wasn't updated for N days — looks like it is abandoned" became a new norm. So I decided to invest my time in NetBSD and setup it on my home server. With idea to use it in some old laptop in the future, in my mind.For me, it :netbsd: fits well — it works in machine with 2 Gb of RAM, it has all necessary things for selfhosting in the binary repositories (fail2ban, Nginx, PostgreSQL, etc) and it has the same spirit of good old Unix as FreeBSD has.
