  • Some of my fav quotes:

    “Ads in an operating system that you’ve paid for from a company that owns ridiculous amounts of money is so offensive.”

    “data, it’s like the new gold to people”

    “I got the confidence to really jump into Linux after the Steam Deck.”

    [regarding the terminal] “You just see text going across the screen, they’re working at lightning speeds.”

    “I’m kissing convenience goodbye, I just want control.”


  • In other words, Vaxry is so unwilling to compromise or learn from others that he would rather isolate his project from the broader FOSS community. That says a lot about him and the people who support him, especially since this conflict with freedesktop.org started over Vaxry condoning hateful trolling of trans people within the Hyprland community.

    This is a problem for me as a Hyprland user because if I share some rice I made or make suggestions for other users, I’m leading people into a community that may be actively hateful towards them. It utterly extinguishes any enthusiasm I have for the project. I like the software but I’d rather be part of a project and a community that I can feel good and excited about. Maybe time to find a new tiling Wayland compositor.


  • I self host jellyfin, nextcloud, owncast, tandoor, komga, photoprism and searxng. I use nginx proxy manager for a reverse proxy and SSL cert automation. Works great for me but I would like to get into traefik sometime.

    I self host for privacy reasons, also it’s fun, it’s a learning opportunity and sometimes self-hosted services are functionally better than the other options out there.
