@Ammonia some people seem to be getting that to work in this thread

As the title said, I have been holding out since I purchased the key. Recently heard on the LTT podcast that 1.0 was launching at the end of March. Is that still the plan? I haven't seen an official blog update in a few months.

with that amount of cores, a gold bar worth of ram and plenty of storage I think you'll have a pretty good time

I'm not sure how much time I can put to all the testing but I access things remotely almost daily so I'll throw my hat in the ring to test things that I can. Missed deadlines suck. Lack of communication sucks. A better system doesn't exist. Learning from it is all we can do not just the developers but the community as well. Most of us are pretty accepting of changes. When I read Q1 2026 I think Q3 2026. If I need to test a few things before getting a second server setup at one of my kids' house so be it. I want to see this succeed. I haven't seen anything that is really delayed or missing. My only two issues that I had in all of this was the first when trying to migrate from Unraid and I lost everything (36TB) which was not the software's fault and I accepted the risk for, and when I lost connection to my server which was apparently something getting gummed in the works between my server and the remote connection. Having a local interface would have meant not even seeing that issue I'm all for getting this working.

It has gone rather quiet. I thought I would see more general discussion or the odd update. Unless I've missed something the most recent update has been a revision to the blog introducing hex OS local originally published 25th Nov 2025 and updated 23rd Jan earlier this year. I'm not complaining before anyone jumps on me. I've been happily running the beta since originally hearing about it on LTT and couldn't have built my NAS without it (not with my skillset at the time anyway). So far it's been running flawlessly, shares and apps have been a breeze to set up, and the minor jobs I've had to do myself such as setting up a VM in truenas for Homeassistant have been recognised and appear on the Hex OS dashboard. I know it's possible I might have to start again from scratch but fingers crossed there is an update path that doesn't break everything. I have on occasion had to re-adopt the server on the dashboard (probably my fault) but it's only happened a couple of times. To avoid wiping everything I just popped out my drives, re-adopted, shut down, popped the drives back in and everything came back when I restarted. If there isn't a simple update to 1.0 with any luck a similar workaround will prevent data loss.

Should be no risk to data loss at all. The biggest risk is getting disconnected from our deck for server administration. That's why we want users to be able to talk to us via discord so that we can quickly remediate those types of problems if they occur. The big switch here initially is going to be authentication. We're moving to key cloak and we set up a more robust infrastructure to enable us to migrate users between production and development environments very easily. While we've done a ton of internal testing on this, we just want to be extra cautious before doing a mass migration of thousands of users all at once. Technically this is still pre 1.0, but the only things that really remain for us are hexos local and some improvements to our health monitoring systems.
