update VS ohmyzsh

FWIW, I am adding a new '-r' mode to opnsense-code to remove the repository as a built-in. https://github.com/opnsense/update/commit/24db42e282b

Personally I use a cheap freebsd vps bootstrapped to opnsense. https://github.com/opnsense/update#opnsense-bootstrap

Your can DEF do this, 2GB RAM is fine for base features. If you're really desperate and could cover shipping, I'd be happy to search for and donate an old SATA spinning rust drive, might only be 250gb. Definitely try it, you can use the LiveUSB stick to perform initial testing. If you happen to run into any issues (I had problems on a really old AMD Sempron), start with a FreeBSD 12.1 and use the installer: https://github.com/opnsense/update#opnsense-bootstrap

Worth a shot maybe? Try installing vanilla FreeBSD 12.1 (https://download.freebsd.org/ftp/releases/ISO-IMAGES/12.1/) and then run the OPNsense-bootstrap installer script: https://github.com/opnsense/update/

I like to install OPNsense on ZFS and the guides I have found recommend first installing FreeBSD on ZFS followed by the OPNsense bootstap (https://github.com/opnsense/update). To my understanding, the normal OPNsense installer is based on HardenedBSD. Can in install HardenedBSF (instead of FreeBSD) followed by OPNsense bootstrap or will that cause a problem?

To your question, I started with FreeBSD based on the instructions from the bootstrap Github. Reason I did that is because I wanted a ZFS partition, and I understood this to be the right path for that. If I'm mistaken, I'm happy to try starting with a HardenBSD image or Opnsense image instead.

It works wonderfully. https://github.com/opnsense/update

If you are not using oh-my-zsh, you are missing out on some amazing plugins. One feature most people wish the terminal had is autocompletion. With the zsh-autosuggestions plugin, your terminal will autocomplete most commands and remember previous ones.

That’s the minimum terminal setup. You can modify the look and add plugins such as autocompletion to your terminal by installing ohmyzsh and using themes such as powerlevel10k. I am already using them.

Somewhat related is "Oh My ZSH!" which is basically zsh on steroids, it's always one of the first things I install on a new computer. It gives things like new colors, themes, plugins, and more. Highly recommend you check it out.

I had just gone through a fun tutorial for setting up oh-my-zsh with a nice color scheme from iterm2colorschemes.com and a decent prompt and I was wondering: can I make my oblique strategy look nice? how can you actually use the colors from your scheme in the output in your cli?

After this you going to visit Oh-My-Zsh which is where the magic will happen.

after automating my dotfiles, I want to automate my installations, after that I want to make my terminal easier to use so I add OMZ with many plugins, after that, I try to automate the backup of my setting on my Gnome but failed, then try using git-lfs for my big files but it turned out to be idiotic moves, bla bla bla many try and fail.
