#RUNBSD! But BoxyBSD now also starts to support #Linux! We're starting soon with the Linux support for already present users, offering free boxes:

* #AlmaLinux
* #Alpine
* #Debian
* #Devuan
* #CentOS
* #Fedora
* #Gentoo
* #OpenSuse
* #OpenEuler
* #RockyLinux

Just next to our core OS like #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #NetBSD, #MidnightBSD and #DragonflyBSD (and #illumos). This should also make the step easier to compare and test different scenarios where BSD provides a different behavior compared to Linux systems.

Thanks to @gyptazy for the implementation!

@gyptazy @BoxyBSD Very nice, but how can you afford to keep the lights on? Lottery? :)

Haha, that would be great :)

But you're right - I started with the left-over resources of my personal virtualization infrastructure and came somewhere to an end!

Luckily, there're several great hosting providers sponsoring my @BoxyBSD project to make sure this can scale: https://boxybsd.com/sponsors
