👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 OpenBLD.net - Caring for Children

Understanding that advertisements are junk information for a child's brain, I also recognize that "adult content" is even more unacceptable for minors.

This includes:

- Pornography
- Escort services
- Gambling

Starting today, I'm launching a new server in test mode with filtering for this type of content.

If the testing is successful, the service will be integrated into the overall OpenBLD.net ecosystem.

Protect your younger generation. And of course, stay connected.

More details see here. Peace to everyone ✌️

🚀 OpenBLD.net - Improved Performance

🔹 Why speed is important

Speed directly affects our time; the faster the service works, the faster your Internet works, thus saving your time and the time of consuming server resources.

Time is life, time is money, time is the most important resource in the world, which we must treat with care.

🔹 What has been done

I have optimized the input/output operations of the OpenBLD.net servers, updated code, and optimized the servers configuration, which has led to a speed increase of about ~10 percent.

Now the server works even faster, and you can enjoy the benefits of the OpenBLD.net service even more.

I hope it works for you as quickly as it does for me. Peace to everyone ✌️

Heya! Today I added new experimental architecture feature in to OpenBLD.net ecosystem:
