I am sure you can ask them, it can be an interesting feature request and they may simply make it available as an option (Tor/I2P access) Thanks Lars for spotting Devuanhosting by Ungleich here! I confirm these people are in touch with Devuan developers and willing to help. Their success is also our success so I encourage everyone to consider them as a hosting solution. We are preparing for a Devuan conference in Amsterdam in November (soon to be announced) and that will also be an occasion to meet the people running this hosting in person. Here a great blogpost by Nico who is leading their team and may be also reading here on DNG https://blog.ungleich.ch/en-us/cms/blog/2017/12/10/the-importance-of-devuan/ ciao ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

This fact alone can triple the value of a VM. By the way, I'm pretty sure that besides being systemd free, their services are run by electricity produced by rivers or waterfalls. No coal, no uranium. I might get one of these things. SteveT ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng

There seems to now be a Swiss hosting provider specializing in Devuan hosting: "We can't stop wars and diseases yet, but we got rid of systemd." ... "thanks to the developers of Devuan." https://devuanhosting.com/en-us/cms/ It is one of their featured selling points. /Lars ___ Dng mailing list Dng@lists.dyne.org https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
