Do I or don't I run pkgbasify on my #ThinkPad now that I'm already on #FreeBSD 15.1-RELEASE ?
Or do I stick with the old school freebsd-update fetch install until I'm forced into the new way ?? 🤔 :freebsd: :runbsd:

@justine I’m waiting for now, while the Old Methods work. At most I might do it on my laptop because I can live with rebuilding that, but my servers will stay how they are

@justine I do a middle road. My jails become pkgbase, my system is still freebsd-update. Jails are less risky to fix if something is broken. Would this be helpful to you too?
