I know we have cockpit but it never really clicked for me. Functionality wise too crashy and not so nicely intergrated, design wise it has the information density of a grandparent brick phone.

This is awesome! I only started toying around with Proxmox after VMware became actively hostile towards users last year or maybe a bit earlier. This is a welcome alternative in the space. It's impressive. But the reputation of FreeBSD and the inclusion of ZFS and jails from the people I trust most to build a lightweight system is pretty great and I'm excited to see how this develops over time.

It is not "by FreeBSD".

The GitHub repo is "AlchemillaHQ" who are one of the three sponsors of the project.

I've been experimenting with jails on my devserver to sandbox AI agents, going to give this a whirl.
