12 Years of ToaruOS

This is a repost and update to an imgur album with screenshots of ToaruOS throughout its development, as imgur is no longer a viable platform for maintaining this collection.

Early Development

My first commit in the ToaruOS repository, ecd4fe2bc170b01ad700ff76c16da96993805355, was made on January 15th, 2011. This date has become ToaruOS's "birthday". It would be another six years and two weeks before ToaruOS's first real release, 1.0.

Don't use VPN services.

No, seriously, don't. You're probably reading this because you've asked what VPN service to use, and this is the answer.

Note: The content in this post does not apply to using VPN for their intended purpose; that is, as a virtual private (internal) network. It only applies to using it as a glorified proxy, which is what every third-party "VPN provider" does.

• A Turkish translation can be found here, contributed by agyild.
• There's also this article about VPN services, which is honestly better written (and has more cat pictures!) than my article.
