Hello - trysten's introduction

General Discussion

Hi! I’m trysten! I wrote a big 'ol post asking for help with unstable installation and how to think about the bleeding edge. It got to around 200 words when I realized, while proofreading my own post, that I had run virtualmin-installer --unstable instead of --branch unstable! Hah! Fortunately I had accurately copied the true install command to my post, so at least I did that right! Anyway, I love virtualmin so far. The community, and especially the staff, seem exceptionally healthy and vibrant. The public discussion of development is so refreshing to see! I hope to become a contributor to the project and to the community as I transition some business from WHM/Cpanel to Virtualmin.

I believe in the benefits of open source as envisioned by the GNU project. Indeed I think it’s where almost all of the really great things in the computer world come from: a living and open exchange of knowledge among people that care.

I’m into all levels of hacking, from esp8266 to cloudflare to efficient nutrition. I’ve recently started playing the word puzzle game Connections and can recommend it to puzzle-enjoyers.

Please comment with your current favorite domain of hackery or tips on integrating into the development process so I don’t embarrass myself in the github issues, again. :slight_smile:

Welcome.

I removed your spammy looking link. Let’s not do that sorta thing, OK? Posting random unrelated links is spam, and is a bannable offense.

Thanks Joe!

I was careful to read the guidelines before posting and I didn’t see anything about not posting links. I’m not sure why you thought it looked spammy, I was just linking to a puzzle game that I enjoyed, but I certainly won’t do it again. If you, or anyone else, were interested you can just search for “connections game” to find the ad-funded rip-offs and the “official” New York Times version. It’s actually extremely fun, I’ve been addicted for weeks now!

hi and welcome

that would have triggered it. it is unrelated to a forum which has only to do with Webmin/Virtualmin/*min and related issues.
there are many on here who have done similar transitions from cpanel and should be able to help you.

please remember to keep to one post/problem per topic and to post the requested “system information” so we do not have to guess.
