☁️ How to install FreeBSD on providers that don't support it with mfsBSD • Stefano Marinelli
"This is a set of scripts that generates a bootable image (and/or ISO file), that creates a working minimal installation of FreeBSD (mfsBSD) or Linux (mfslinux). It is completely loaded into memory."

Is it just me, or am I seeing an increase in #political posts here on #bsd.network?
Maybe I've not been paying too much attention, but it seems I'm seeing more of them than usual.
I have a question for the #fedi #floss#BSD hivemind:
I have a friend who is a crusty old sysadmin frustrated with Failbook and the rest who I think would LOVE the Fediverse.
I days past I'd have recommended @fosstodon but I know they're facing capacity issues.
Can anyone recommend a good ideally UNIX (BSD, Linux?) or FLOSS oriented instance I can point him at?
He's not as much of a retrocomputing maven as I am so oldbytes isn't a good fit IMO :)
Thanks!

To #Blind and #LowVision Linux users:
Which #Linux or #BSD distributions are you able to install without assistance? Are there any that work better with screenreaders and other assistive technologies out of the box?
I'm trying to understand how much of the problem is specific to distributions, their installers or differences in windowing system such as Wayland breaking screenreaders vs X11.
