Nginx Has Moved to GitHub

pfSense maintains some momentum due to name recognition, but anyone who digs a little deeper will see that they're clowns and go with OPN instead.

Can you please cite some recent examples of this clownlike behavior?

Out of curiosity I googled 'pfsense clown' and found this thread: https://old.reddit.com/r/opnsense/comments/1ct683k/clown_mom...

They harassed the OPNsense team, registering a domain to besmirch them and then pretended to have nothing to do with it until ICANN got involved

Oh, and they knowingly shipped a broken and insecure Wireguard to their customers, and tried to use their FreeBSD commit status to force it upstream

This is the most recent one I'm familiar with. Jason D even had to get involved and there was a lot of bad blood.

Try compiling pfSense.

No, here's an even simpler task: try compiling packages for pfSense.

The clowns from Netgate made it unbelievably difficult, for no good reason other than being antagonist to the open source community.

Meanwhile, I've never tried building OPN but it looks well documented and can be added to a vanilla FreeBSD install. https://github.com/opnsense/core
