Linux enthusiast, self-hosting enjoyer and open-source builder.

I like building, deploying and maintaining infrastructure — from small home servers to containerized services, reverse proxies, backups, networking and automation.

A lot of my projects start with a simple question:

"Can I self-host this?"

• Linux server administration
• NixOS
• Docker & Docker Compose
• Proxmox / virtualization
• Reverse proxies
• SSL/TLS automation
• Networking, VPNs and firewalling
• Backup infrastructure with Restic
• Monitoring and service troubleshooting

I mostly use development as a tool for solving infrastructure and self-hosting problems.

I have experience with:

• Python
• Bash / shell scripting
• Git
• APIs and service integrations
• Dockerized application development

I'm also interested in doing more with:

• Go
• Rust
• Kubernetes operators & tooling
• Infrastructure automation
• Developer tools

Self-hosting is probably the area I enjoy the most.

I experiment with and maintain services involving:

• Docker / Compose
• Forgejo
• Vaultwarden
• Mail servers
• Reverse proxies
• XMPP / communication services
• TURN / STUN
• Object storage
• Backup systems
• Monitoring
• VPN infrastructure
• Small ARM servers
• Home lab infrastructure

I enjoy understanding not only how to deploy something, but also how it works internally and how it can be improved.

A self-hosted, privacy-oriented platform for storing, indexing and managing Telegram media and files.

The idea is to combine Telegram-native workflows with a personal self-hosted archive.

I'm interested in experimenting with privacy-focused communication infrastructure, including:

• XMPP
• TURN / STUN
• encrypted messaging
• self-hosted messaging backends
• libsignal
• alternative communication protocols

I regularly experiment with:

• NixOS configurations
• Docker infrastructure
• reverse proxies
• firewalling
• backups
• monitoring
• Git hosting
• CI/CD
• ARM devices
• virtualization

I'm especially interested in open-source projects around:

Self-hosting
Linux
NixOS
Containers
Networking
Privacy
Messaging
Git infrastructure
Backup systems
Monitoring
Kubernetes
GitOps
Developer tooling

I'd also be interested in contributing to projects where infrastructure needs to be:

• easier to deploy
• easier to self-host
• easier to maintain
• more observable
• more secure
• better documented

Currently spending more time exploring:

• Rust
• Go
• Kubernetes
• GitOps
• Prometheus-compatible monitoring
• secure infrastructure
• privacy-focused software
• distributed/self-hosted systems

interests:
  - self-hosting
  - open-source
  - linux
  - infrastructure
  - privacy
  - networking
  - automation
  - experimenting with software

I enjoy taking existing open-source software, understanding how it works, deploying it in unusual environments and sometimes extending it with features I need.

I'm interested in collaborating on:

• self-hosted applications
• infrastructure tools
• privacy-focused software
• Linux / NixOS tooling
• monitoring and automation
• messaging infrastructure
• small experimental open-source projects

If a project involves Linux, containers, networking or self-hosting, there's a good chance I'll find it interesting.

Build it. Host it. Break it. Understand it. Fix it. 🚀
