TrueNAS build system going closed source (piefed.social)

Readme updated today:

This repository is no longer actively maintained.  

The TrueNAS build system previously hosted here has been moved to an internal infrastructure. This transition was necessary to meet new security requirements, including support for Secure Boot and related platform integrity features that require tighter control over the build and signing pipeline.  

No further updates, pull requests, or issues will be accepted. Existing content is preserved here for historical reference only.

Wondering if this is just the first step towards doing a minio in the future.

And yet they went with K3s at first, a crappy implementation at that, and refused to even consider adding Docker for like a year, then suddenly it became super important to replace their k3s stack with docker in the next release, barely giving people 2-3 months to get all their apps updated.

K3S sorta makes sense in an enterprise environment but for the small one box use case it's overkill and a pain to work with for little extra gain.

Not only that but there wasn't even a notification on the dashboard for me after updating the OS that k3s were being replaced, I found out after updating when my apps wouldn't work. When did I update? About 2 weeks after the migration deadline. Had to rebuild my Plex, Jellyfin and Immich apps.

Don't get me wrong, I don't like notifications from the OS developer in my system, but that would've been a great heads up and a worthy exception. "Hey migrate your apps now or your shit will break" would've worked.

They are very hostile to users and I moved to a pure FreeBSD self managed storage and deployment solution

TrueNAS doesn't add anything to ZFS or what the OS can do. There's a couple graphs and reporting features but the rest just adds more work
