solaris

Sun Microsystems website as of 1994.

I had to give @BoxyBSD a try and it is really amazing! Just got an #illumos box running there for free and it works without any issues. So, not only #BSD based systems, but also #opensolaris is supported at @gyptazy's amazing service. Thank you very much for this service. Btw, you could add real home directories for the created user ;)

Maybe more people will have a look at #solaris like #openindiana or #tribblix or #omnios.

Putting out a #DigiPres request:

Anyone out there in #RetroComputing fedi have, or know where I could get, #RealPlayer 5, G2, 7, or 8 for #Solaris or #IRIX? Or any other *NIX ports aside from Linux that might be out there?

Edit: Got it! Fedi is awesome!

manpageblog v1.6 just got released. It is a static blog engine concept that treats written content like classic Unix man pages. It puts content first without sacrificing style and delivers a clean, elegant reading experience free from JavaScript, infinite scrolling, and other distracting clutter. The result is a fast, focused, and genuinely enjoyable way to consume high-quality content which can easily be served on very low power systems and follows the pure minimalism concept.

manpageblog is written in Python and available for many systems, including #FreeBSD, #OpenBSD, #NetBSD or #Solaris based ones like #Illumos but also on #Linux like #Debian or #Ubuntu.

Changelog v1.6:

Pagination support added
Sitemap support added
SEO optimized
LD+JSON support added

manpageblog was initially crafted by me to match the minimalism on FreeBSD and you can directly start with it from the ports:
