FreeCORE: TrueNAS Fork Maintaining Deeply Integrated Virtualization, Jails, and OpenZFS on FreeBSD

TrueNAS CORE has been the standard for open-source storage using FreeBSD and OpenZFS. The shift to TrueNAS SCALE, based on Debian, left some users needing alternatives. FreeCORE upgrades TrueNAS CORE to FreeBSD 15.0, restoring essential features like FreeBSD Jails. While it satisfies certain administrators' needs, its long-term sustainability and maintenance by a single individual raise concerns.
