    I zoomed in on their terminal and it says both arch and free BSD? How is it both?

    Edit: I see SSH in the tab title of the terminal, so I’m guessing one of those is a remote server? Which one tho?

      I would guess the FreeBSD is the remote server as it’s usually used as a server os and the archlinux installation has a zen processor that I don’t think would be that useful inside a server

        if by “zen processor” you mean zen kernel then yes you’re correct: iirc (linux) zen kernel is tuned for desktop usage, and also both machines are on ryzen cpu so I don’t think that matters here.

        the desktop in this image is arch linux, and the remote freebsd machine is actually sitting right behind me, it’s also what powers my instance that I’m posting from.

          Cool, I didn’t know about the zen kernel and thought it was just telling it was a ryzen cpu.

          I also want to get my own instance but CGNAT is blocking me until I can get a VPS running.
