There is a template for building (not for musl) it from source in void-packages. I never tried the official binary.
# git clone --depth=1 https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages
# cd void-packages
# ./xbps-src binary-bootstrap
# echo XBPS_ALLOW_RESTRICTED=yes >> etc/conf
# ./xbps-src pkg MEGAsync
$ xbps-install --repository=hostdir/binpkgs MEGAsync
And when Megasync is updated or you do a full
$ xbps-install -Su
you need to build Megasync from the sources again.

I am really impressed with the new upgrade process in OpenBSD. It's called 'sysupgrade' – “upgrade system to the next release or a new snapshot”.

I am using the awesome service at openbsd.amsterdam for various BSD explorations and teaching myself the whole ecosystem.
Now the 6.5 version has been released into the wild I decided to upgrade my vm on openbsd.amsterdam. Here's the guide to upgrade your vm.
Hope this helps!

I have been translating Tusky to Swedish for a couple of months now. It is a great and fuzzy feeling when there is a great FOSS-project we all can contribute to.
The last weeks the head developer @ConnyDuck@chaos.social has tested a couple of different translation projects, like Crowdin and now lately Weblate , we both prefer the latter since it is open source and possible to host on your own infrastructure.

I've just donated $12 to Tusky. Consider donating too, every little helps! https://opencollective.com/tusky?referral=32452

Spleen is the new default font in OpenBSD, thanks to Frederic Cambus .
Monospaced bitmap fonts for consoles,
terminals, and code editors.
available in 5 sizes:
1. 5x8
2. 8x16
3. 12x24
4. 16x32
5. 32x64
I personally installed the fonts on both Mac OS X and Arch Linux without any issues. The fonts are looking really great.

As seen on reddit. CloudFlare's 1.1.1.1 public DNS manually manipulates the .org zone for its users, setting a scary precedent.
This is a list I wrote about a year ago, but it's still accurate:
It's not really free. It's like a drug dealer “First ones free”.
Shared SSL certificates
Forced to use Comodo for SSL. Comodo's CEO is a sleazebag.
Can't use Let's Encrypt for SSL
Can't use your own SSL
Decrypts SSL traffic, breaking End-To-End Encryption.
Cooperates with tyrannical governments
Provides services to terrorists, child pornographers, and so on
Has no “vetting” process for new customers
Does not protect your website from hacking
Doesn't provide any value to 99% of websites
Cloudflare's CEO is an ego-maniac who believes he controls the entire internet.
More details on SSL decryption:
Keyless SSL requires that Cloudflare decrypt, inspect and re-encrypt traffic > for transmission back to a customer’s origin.''
Source: https://www.cloudflare.com/ssl/keyless-ssl/
By doing that, Cloudflare is violating the trust between users and server operators and making the SSL certificate itself worthless. A website cannot be considered “Secure” if the traffic is decrypted by a man in the middle.

I usually use Vultr, my referral link to host my cloud images for misc purposes. I also got a couple of VPS running OpenBSD.
I used Romans awesome guide for upgrading it to 6.4.
