i run a bunch of servers in my closet (and probably yours too)

• self-hosting everything — because why pay for cloud when you can hear your hard drives scream from the next room
• build simple websites & apps that work (mostly, eventually)
• run tor snowflake proxies to help people bypass censorship. take that, great firewall
• operate syncthing relays so your files can find their way through the dark
• ping random servers around the world via globalping — helping the internet, one icmp packet at a time

• lowercase enthusiast. capital letters are a suggestion
• antisocial but my servers are very social
• i believe every home needs at least one rack-mounted server running at 65°c
• "have you tried turning it off and on again?" is not a meme, it's a lifestyle

📡 tor snowflake proxies       = fight censorship
🔄 syncthing relays             = sync all the things
🌐 globalping probes            = y tho? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
🖥️ random web apps             = digital garden, lots of weeds
📦 various docker containers   = it's turtles all the way down

some old hardware running linux, probably covered in dust, consuming electricity and making my room slightly warmer. it's fine. i don't need a heater in winter anyway.

• forgejo: git.nghia.app/nghialele
• github: github.com/nghialele
• matrix:
• where i actually am: probably staring at a terminal.
