Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either [email protected] or [email protected].
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email [email protected]. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

Some absolute lunatic on Sysadmin made a joke about Broadcom purchasing Veeam.
No one should ever joke about being purchased by Broadcom after what they are doing to VMware.
I switched jobs partly to avoid that BS. How much worse has it gotten since last year?
I don't deal with it directly. But brocade removing the free ESXi version and doing a 40-60% price increase will hurt a lot of places.
Yeah, last I heard, the place I worked at was going to be priced out of their products, from ESXi hosts to Horizon to WorkSapce1. ALL the eggs were in that basket.
They'll have to transition and retool for everything.
I work for a F500 org that does billions in sales a month and Brocade couldn't tell us if we were going to be invited to the new partner program. It was an absolute shitshow.
Makes me glad I only have to deal with Cisco and FortiNet.
Definitely a shitshow. I have some contacts internally over there that have led me to believe that it's as bad as it appears to be from the outside.
