The Thunix.net project is a community project focused on decentralized and distributed technologies. Building the system is a volunteer effort, in which people can now keep their data stored anywhere.
These changes came following the system volume corrupting[1] on the old server, which was intended to serve as an alternative to hexhaxtron's thunix Shell Provider and Web Host (thunix.org) when the server went offline unexpectedly. According to the Frequently Asked Questions page, users were given time to copy data off before the disks were wiped.[1]
Unlike either hexhaxtron's and amcclure's thunix.org, the new Thunix.net is now focused on decentralization, with the goal to let users keep their data wherever they wish, while keeping it as a part of a global chain of VPN-connected systems.
Authentication to services, servers, and containers are done with LDAP. A mountable network filesystem contains the users' home directories. An ingress VPN with a private network space connects Thunix.net's infrastructure. Still relying heavily on ansible, the configuration for thunix.net can get deployed on various machines for use with the decentralized network. The ansible use also ensures a baseline configuration for all of the machines, so long as users do not install things manually.
