In case you didn't hear TrueNAS is going partially closed source. However, there seems to be a lack of alternatives.

Any ideas on what to move to?

Yeah I'm still moving away from it. They are going as closed source as they can without breaking the GPL

Its your right of course. I think, though, that internet is often amplifying even the tiniest negative things while forgeting all good stuff (not limited to TrueNAS). I hate such culture, especially when the people (not you, in general) then go and use stuff like Twitter and similar. I mean how is it that people witch hunt this incredible free product they are getting, no strings attached and at the same time doom scroll tik tok or use WhatsApp or have windows or mac.. You get the gist. I wish internet echo chambered also the positive stuff... I'll stop rambling, sigh, sorry...
