Somewhat late to the party, I've learned that boxybsd is no longer in operation.

I'm really sad to learn of this.

A few years ago, it was invaluable to me in keeping portable as it allowed me access to a wealth of machines.

Does anyone know why boxybsd has ceased, and are there plans for a successor at all?

Cc: @stefano -- can you shed light on this?

    geek stuff, self hosting question [SENSITIVE CONTENT]

    I'm in need of renewing my personal/self hosting services again. I don't have need for much, but I do want to host (for family use only) the following (doesn't have to be snappy, 3 users so far only):

    - Nextcloud
    - Readeck
    - Vaultwarden
    - email
    - Wordpress

      You could do the weblord thing and get a $20/yr cheap VPS then try:

      Forgejo: https://forgejo.org ...

      "Forgejo is a Free Software platform for collaboration and productivity in software development. It offers a familiar environment to GitHub users, easy installation and maintenance, and a focus on security, scaling, federation and privacy."
      ... or cgit, which is very fast and slick for the barebones portal ...

      ... codeberg has a nice setup (via forgejo) if you don't want to self-host.

        1. Register your own domain name.
        2. Get a cheap VPS.
        3. Install Hestia Control Panel for managing DNS, SSL certs, and services.
        4. Install any app or blog engine you desire.

        This keeps everything entirely under your own control.
