Eva Winterschön<p>Sometimes I think, maybe I should use TrueNAS, and then I remembered that their C•Suite decided to give the 🖕🏻 to FreeBSD... the very same operating system and community of developers and engineers who enabled their company to exist from the start, to scale to the level which brought them success and growth and accolades from the OSS and enterprise storage communities alike. </p><p>So no, I don't use TrueNAS. Whatever many reasons they and their indolent fanboys push for moving to Linux, and I have heard them all, it's irrelevant. They didn't just bite the hand that feeds, they went straight over to the clown-show makeup meme table and slathered it on; trying so hard to convince everyone including themselves that this betrayal was the Good and Ethical thing to do. </p><p>Luckily there are alternatives, and those will get my time, engineering efforts, and fiscal support. One thing to remember: alienated users do not recommend those formerly loved products to their employers, they do not "spread the love" via organic marketing, and perhaps sometimes they dissuade when they would formerly embrace.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>freebsd</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/truenas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>truenas</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/oss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>oss</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/enterprisearchitecture" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>enterprisearchitecture</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>homelab</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/storage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>storage</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/ixsystems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ixsystems</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/mistakes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mistakes</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.bsd.cafe/tags/corporategreed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>corporategreed</span></a></p>
David Fi&er<p>Starting to write down questions and things to do so that I can migrate from TrueNAS Core to vanilla FreeBSD for my home server.</p><p>I suspect that this will be easier than I think (thanks to ZFS), but it's very worrying, especially since I don't have a good way to back up 1.25 TB of data. </p><p>Guess I'll have to buy a new beefier external drive.</p><p><a href="https://code4lib.social/tags/freebsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>freebsd</span></a> <a href="https://code4lib.social/tags/truenas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>truenas</span></a> <a href="https://code4lib.social/tags/ixsystems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ixsystems</span></a></p>
Serge from Babka<p>The TrueNAS hardware is very good, and I also am somewhat partial to the TrueNAS software (with some exceptions on why it's chosen to use Kubernetes and not just plain Docker).</p><p>But the company is downright odd sometimes. I had a number of issues ordering my current machine, and when this one came, it came with TrueNAS 13, rather than the current TrueNAS 24.</p><p>Worse yet, you can't just upgrade to 24... you have to upgrade to 22, then 23, and finally 24.</p><p>What silliness....</p><p><a href="https://babka.social/tags/TrueNAS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TrueNAS</span></a> <a href="https://babka.social/tags/ixSystems" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ixSystems</span></a></p>
