The user whose Bug was removed from the website, made a clone bug report. https://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/8215
Comparing the report on the site with the screenshot:
just use OpenWRT, it has all the same shit
I’m not a networking expert but OpenWrt on my homelab is pretty fucking awesome
Netgate are shitbags. Fuck pfSense.
This bugs me. I selected between pfSense and OpnSense a few years ago and got the impression pfSense’s support and UI was better. I’m not looking forward to having reconfigure everything if switching :/
Been very happy with OPNsense since switching a few years ago.
I made the switch. It was a good excuse to clean up my config though.
I ended up installing it in a VM initially, just so I could configure it how I needed before going live. Then made a config backup, installed opnsense, then restored the config (after changing the interface names)
I’ll never go back to pfsense.
Tried OpenSense twice, always fell back to pfSense.
Plus, work gave me a rackmount Netgate appliance, so I’m on it until that unit dies.
There are some convertors that can wrangle a pfsense config into opnsense. I had the exact same issue and exact same thought about two years ago. But I do like Opnsense much, much more nowadays.
Isn’t this why we have OpnSense?
No, OPNsense doesn’t exist because of pfsense false advertising and misleading people to think it’s open source.
More like it exists because of pfsense not being open source. This has nothing to do with the advertising.
Ok. Shakin my head here. I certainly believed pfSense was opensource.
I switched to OPNsense this year, mostly because that’s what we use at work.
It sounds like I’m on the right one then?
Or is somebody next week gonna tell me OPNsense is a fully corporate orphan crushing operation?✅
What’s proprietary about pfSense? Been using it for a decade and this is news to me.
The article is a good start. For one, you cannot build it. They have some sort of proprietary blob in their toolchain so that only netgate can build it.
Between that, the massive security fuckups, and the absolutely horrid behavior from the maintainers I dumped that shit and haven’t looked back.
Btw that seems to be a fork/reupload of a DMCA’d repo.
i don’t seem to see a dmca notice in the forked from project
If you click links in the readme (i only tried the last two ones) you get a dmca takedown message.
