This weekend marks an incredible milestone for BoxyBSD: we’ve provisioned our 500th free VPS instance! What started as a passion project aimed at supporting the open-source community has grown into something truly special, and I couldn’t be more proud to see the impact it’s having on learners, enthusiasts, and open-source contributors worldwide.

BoxyBSD was born out of a simple yet powerful idea: to lower the barriers to entry for anyone eager to learn, experiment, or contribute to BSD-based operating systems. By providing free virtual private servers (VPS), I’ve been able to offer a platform where beginners can explore the intricacies of system administration, networking, and security practices without the financial burden of hosting costs.
