I will join the gratulations! I’ve also upgraded my home NAS server and my remote Backup server without a glitch including upgrade of ZFS and all ports. Everything now works as on 12.2.

freebsd-update -r 13.0-RELEASE upgrade
/usr/sbin/freebsd-update install
fix /etc/ssh/sshd_conf
shutdown -r now
freebsd-update install
pkg-static install -f pkg
pkg bootstrap -f
pkg update
pkg upgrade
freebsd-update install
shutdown -r now
zpool upgrade nas

Excellent work from the FreeBSD team!

Thanks
Peter
