gyptazy<p>When I launched the <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/BoxyBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BoxyBSD</span></a> project my goal was to create a welcoming, free space for beginners to dive into BSD-based systems and learn at their own pace. I’m a huge fan of free and open-source software, so I naturally gravitated toward Matrix for the chat setup right from the start. But honestly, <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/Matrix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Matrix</span></a> isn’t always the smoothest ride - especially for newcomers. It can get a bit tricky, and that’s the last thing I want when I’m trying to make people feel at ease. My focus is on helping beginners get comfortable, encouraging them to experiment, and letting them discover the value of <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/BSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BSD</span></a> (like <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreeBSD</span></a>, <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/OpenBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenBSD</span></a>, <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/NetBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NetBSD</span></a>, etc.) for themselves - not throwing them into something that might feel overwhelming.<br>That’s why I decided to add a Discord server alongside Matrix. It’s just simpler for a lot of people, and I want to meet folks where they’re at. But I’m not a fan of scattered conversations across platforms - it drives me nuts - so I’ve bridged the main channels on Discord and Matrix. That way, we’re all still chatting together, no matter which spot you prefer - simply one thing: <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/RUNBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RUNBSD</span></a>!</p><p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/@BoxyBSD" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>BoxyBSD</span></a></span></p>

Currebtly, I tinker with a new but also honestly not free service. The idea is creating a static IP service for homelab users. I'm aware that there're already some around, so what could be some benefits here?</p><p>- Static single <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/IPv4" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IPv4</span></a> & <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/IPv6" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IPv6</span></a> /48 (so you can subnet your homelab to several /64 without breaking <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/slacc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>slacc</span></a>)<br>- Bigger subnets (IPv4: /29, /28, /27 | IPv6: /32)<br>- Full RIPE personalization (inc. abuse & Co)<br>- <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/OpenVPN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>OpenVPN</span></a>, <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/Wireguard" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wireguard</span></a>, <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/GRE" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GRE</span></a> Support<br>- Auto configure (e.g., you load the wireguard config on any client and the addresses Arena immediately bound to that interface)<br>- Split usage / multiple tunnels: Use different IPs from your subnets at different locations<br>- Integration into <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/BoxyBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BoxyBSD</span></a> <br>- Location in Germany or Netherlands (selectable)<br>- Hosted on redundant <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/FreeBSD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreeBSD</span></a> nodes </p><p>Pricing:<br>- The starter package probably around 10€/month (not more) + 15€ setup including 2T traffic <br>- Pricing for addiriinal/larger subnets not yet sure, probably higher setup fees to avoid hoppers and spamers to keep the addresses clean <br>- Optional traffic packages (when exceeding speed Limit of 10Mbit which should still be ok for most homelabs)</p><p>World this be interesting? Im aware that many ones already do this by VPS themselves, so this might just be a bit easier and optionally offering whole networks including RIPE personalizations.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/hosting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>hosting</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/Server" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Server</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/kubernetes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>kubernetes</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/Lab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lab</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homelab</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/home" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>home</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/homelabs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homelabs</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/homelabcommunity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homelabcommunity</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/homelabnetworking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homelabnetworking</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/network" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>network</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/networking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>networking</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/tunnel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tunnel</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/tunnelbroker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tunnelbroker</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/proxmox" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>proxmox</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/XCPng" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>XCPng</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/Virtualisation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Virtualisation</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/virtualization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>virtualization</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/traffic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>traffic</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.gyptazy.com/tags/BGP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BGP</span></a></p>
