Remote editing can be done without special servers, just ssh. This is good work and quicker but mostly I don't need that performance and just being able to use ssh is nicer.

Is there some more work needed for the remote server to just compile for FreeBSD? It seems for the editor itself only audio calls (wtf?) don’t work on FreeBSD

Edit: FWIW, it doesn't really build on freebsd
