Happy Birthday, BSD Cafe! πŸŽ‚

Seeing your idea flourish into such a vibrant and supportive community is amazing. The positive atmosphere and mutual respect here are remarkable. It’s clear your hard work and vision have paid off.

You got me directly attracted last year on Twitter when I started with social medias and we shared exactly the same mindset - not only about #BSD related content but also about how a community around should look like. You got me back more into the community and into community related services and #opensource. I took the opportunity to create a service like #BoxyBSD for the BSD community, which provides free #VMs (#FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #NetBSD, #OpenSolaris, #illumos) for the community to learn, practice or to build their projects. Not everyone can afford own systems to learn in real setups and here we come back to the community mindset - which I honestly took over from you by providing us all your great services!

Getting in touch with all the members of the #BSDCafe it was clear that we need something like a meeting - so we got the #BSDPub, where we can meet, discuss and share knowledge. I feel like home here in the BSDCafe and I can only recommend everyone who's interested into BSD to join.

Wishing you many more successful years ahead. Thank you for everything!
