gyptazy.com is a Fediverse instance that uses the ActivityPub protocol. In other words, users at this host can communicate with people that use software like Mastodon, Pleroma, Friendica, etc. all around the world.
This server runs the snac software and there is no automatic sign-up process.
https://fedi-relay.gyptazy.com is a tech related relay instance that connects over 100 instances, focussing on things like #FreeBSD, #BGP, #IPv6, #Proxmox, #Homelab, #Linux and many other things! You can easily add a really when using #snac / #snac2, #mastodon, #pleroma and many other ones!

New blog post: Running your own Autonomous System on FreeBSD.
Got an AS number and IPv6 /48 via RIPE, set up a FreeBSD BGP router with FRR, two upstreams, and built GRE/GIF tunnels ti bring my own globally routable addresses to servers at different providers.
The interesting part: dual-FIB policy routing lets FreeBSD jails speak from both provider and BGP addresses simultaneously.

My website "hofstede.it" now lives in my own AS201379 on my asigned IP-addresses 🙂

Running my own BGP router in LONAP (London) with FreeBSD and FRR, where I announce my network 2a06:9801:1c::/48 to the internet.
Peering is still fairly limited, but that'll improve within the next weeks, when I get 2 new peers 🙂
