Control your jail boot order!
BastilleBSD now supports priority=N for jails, so you can define which services
start first after reboot. (Lower priority starts first)

We talked about the roadmap for #AlpineLinux 3.23 yesterday. So far we have:
- apk-tools 3.0
- gcc 15
- python 3.13
- improve/clean up Alpine user handbook (we need volunteers for this)
See
https://gitlab.alpinelinux.org/alpine/aports/-/issues/17294 if you want help or have things you are working on that should be included.
Curious about XLibre? So are we! That's why we created some experimental ISOs with the display server preinstalled.

I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
