  If only I would get a dollar for each crappy bullshit slop panel out there.

  You're absolutely right, my friend. That's why I built this control panel and tested it for a full year. It was CLI-only at first, but I've now developed a graphical interface for it. You can try it out and evaluate it, and I genuinely welcome your honest feedback, no matter what it is. Your opinion means a lot to me, my friend.

  I’ve spent 15 years working in networking and server infrastructure, and throughout that time, I’ve seen many of the same issues across different control panels. Those experiences taught me that building a reliable server management platform requires much more than just creating a user interface. It requires understanding the real-world challenges, edge cases, security concerns, and operational details that developers without extensive infrastructure experience might easily overlook.

  That’s why I started developing this project a year ago, focusing on the details that truly matter in production environments.

  And here’s something important: this project is not for sale, and it will remain 100% free. My goal isn’t to build another commercial alternative, but to create a reliable, practical, and accessible server management platform that everyone can benefit from.

  I believe the best way to improve it is through real-world testing, honest feedback, and collaboration with the community. That’s exactly why I’m inviting people to try it, challenge it, and help me make it better.

  It’s true that ai helped me with the visual identity, but I worked on things far more important than that.

  You thought having all these AI slop panels is bad, so you started your own AI slop panel?
  You might should get a better AI to outsource your thinking.

  AI only assisted me with the visual identity, security testing, proofreading, and documentation. The engineering decisions and implementation are my own, built on 15 years of experience in networking and server infrastructure...
  This is a personal project I chose to release for free, not a commercial product. I’d appreciate technical criticism based on actual flaws rather than assumptions about how AI was used.

  The same response as always.. Trust me bro, I did this myself, AI just helped with UI.
  Don't criticize the slop, instead do free bug testing for me...

  I'm getting tired of this... Pretty sure we all get tired of this.

  But hey, since you panel is free, and you seem to know how to use GitHub, feel free to prove me wrong, make the panel open source, so we all can see your 1yr history of "developing" this.

  You’re welcome to evaluate it through the CLI if that’s your preferred approach. I’m not trying to convince everyone to use my panel or claim it’s perfect.

  I’ve spent years developing and using it on my own servers, and I’m sharing it because I believe it could benefit the community. Even if I’m the only person who uses it, that’s still worthwhile to me.

  What I genuinely want to learn is whether it can meet real-world security standards and offer a reliable, practical experience for other administrators. I can judge my own work only to a certain extent; independent technical review is what helps uncover the weaknesses I might have missed.

  If you want independent technical reviews, open source your project.
  So people can actually review it.

  Perhaps I’ll make the source code public once I’ve cleaned it up and prepared it for others to work with reliably. Some parts of the code have minor issues that can cause significant problems during development, mainly due to the many changes I’ve made to the CLI over time. Once you look at the code, you’ll understand what I mean. I want to address these issues first before opening it up to the community.

  Why does it need to be cleaned up? you can just ignore any PRs lol. Why don't these AI slop creators just own it? Human intelligence will cease to exist within a few years anyways. I'd respect you more if you just own it.

  Yeah I use AI so what?

  You’re right, my friend. The real problem is the misuse of AI. When AI reorganizes files or modifies code and the developer doesn’t understand what changed or how it works, that’s where things become dangerous.

  I agree with you on that. I used AI to help with the visual identity, but it sometimes suggests solutions that actually get in my way, especially when it comes to security vulnerabilities. That’s why I believe AI should be a tool to assist developers, not a replacement for understanding the code and taking responsibility for it.

  Even organizing technical documentation has become something AI does better than I do, so I take advantage of that too. There’s nothing wrong with using tools that make our work more efficient. These days, almost every developer consults AI to learn how to approach a problem or implement something. The real difference is whether you understand the results, can evaluate their quality, and take responsibility for what you build.
