    Are you able to use FreeBSD for hosting these sites? I think most visitors would be from US.

    I have the same set. For ADS-B (aircraft transponders) the dipole needs to be the smallest, point the grounded side down (look at how the cable is attached to the antenna).

    It would depend on if you could use something like Wordpress or Drupal or some existing solution. Some customisation of something like those would be more $$$. If you want a custom from-scratch solution then definitely more $$$. Would it need...

    Is it specifically FreeBSD which you having problems with. If so I would definitely try with the FreeBSD ISO on a Ventoy stick. That might get you further. Also it might be worth trying an mfsBSD ISO.

    True, and I just learned how to use Google Authenticator as a second factor for ssh connections. On top of certs. It's not hard, but does require a small amount of effort. Not to mention the excellent jail infrastructure.

    Quick note. There is no such thing as 16.0-RELEASE. Only 16.0-CURRENT which you should not be using. It's for developers working on the new version. You should only be trying to install 15.1-RELEASE.
