As of today, I believe NetBSD is one of the most important operating systems to consider for your deployments.
With hardware costs rising dramatically, portability and efficiency have become more important than ever. If prices do not come down, we will probably have to adapt and create new kinds of hardware, at lower cost. And NetBSD, by its very nature, will be very easy to port to that hardware.
Does it run on your modern PC? Maybe. Maybe not.
But it runs on your server. On your VPS. On your SBC. On your old computer, which may still have a lot to give, especially if you want to keep ownership of your own data.
And I know something about old hardware still having a lot to give:
https://it-notes.dragas.net/2023/08/27/that-old-netbsd-server-running-since-2010/No jails or containerisation? smolBSD has already shown that a reduced NetBSD kernel can be so small that it can be started in milliseconds, while also adding the security benefits of virtualisation. A different concept, certainly. But one that already exists and can already be used.
Linux itself has opened up to AI. That is a choice I will not comment on.
But from now on, for those who do not want LLM-generated code in their operating system, there are essentially two options: fork Linux (!!!), or choose something different.
And NetBSD is that something different.
Already in 2024:
“...code generated by a large language model or similar technology (e.g. ChatGPT, GitHub Copilot) is presumed to be tainted (i.e. of unclear copyright, not fitting NetBSD's licensing goals) and cannot be committed to NetBSD.”

smolBSD by @imil could be a nice docker alternative for #littleFedi
I'll perform more tests and will consider to make it an "official deployment method". -

Building #smolBSD on #Alpine is an adventure: one first needs to edit Makefile and replace --quiet with -s (Busybox's sha256sum doesn't recognize the former option), then edit mkimg.sh and remove --show from losetup options (again, a Busybox quirk). Even then, the build is only mostly successful, and my attempt of running a full live setup... makes me think I should have RTFM for #NetBSD first.

My Sunday challenge: installing #Devuan in place of #OpenBSD on my laptop so I can install #postmarketOS on an old tablet, because for some reason I only have a blue USB port on that laptop (my SFF PC has a whole bunch of USB ports, but none are blue). Let's see how well restoring the backup will work once I reinstall OpenBSD.
I wonder how many years worth of work would it take to create a #NetBSD / #smolBSD based mobile distro after #postmarketOS has done more progress...

Pssst! BoxyConnect comes soon to @BoxyBSD!
BoxyConnect allows you to create a private network / private link between multiple boxes at BoxyBSD. And the best? You can even create this over different locations/countries to provide you more flexibility.
You can simply assign any RFC1918 addresses on your new additional network interface on both sites and communicate in your own private network - even miles away.
This feature is currently in beta and will hopefully be available to everyone (just like all other services of course for free). Enjoy #RUNBSD!
This new feature is powered by @gyptazy!
