Hello. I'm fab. That means "fabulous"! (In reality it means "fat and bearded", but who likes to hear that?) If you want to know my real name, send an email with a good reason why. I don't want my identity scattered all over the internet, so I use this pseudonym.
I'm very interested in the SmolNet/IndieWeb and I like to build up my Gemini capsule and my Gopher hole. I also have a website which is just a proxy to my Gemini content. My gopher hole was the latest addition to the services I provide. It was born on Saturday, 27th of January in the year 2024. So at the time of writing, it's 4 days old :-)
I'm zealous computer geek/nerd. I like to tinker around with my homelab and diverse operating systems like Linux and FreeBSD. I feel especially at home in the terminal and like simple plaintext tools. I always prefer the commandline/CLI or TUI interfaces over GUI applications.
As a hobby programmer my language usage is diverse: rust, python, bash, perl or whatever fits the problem best. I'm not an expert in any of these and I learn while I solve specific problems/needs.
My little homelab is another thing where I try out things and I try to selfhost as much myself as I can. I'm always searching for a minimalist and simple solution, e.g. I don't have a full blown NextCloud or OpenMediaVault instance running. I have a NAS which only exposes SSH/SFTP. This is enough to stream videos, make backups or store git repositories. The only bigger setup I have is a SyncThing instance to sync my documents, VimWiki and config files with the NAS.
I'm in no way an expert or professional. All the things I know I've learned in a self educating and autodidactic way and 'just for fun' or to solve a specific need.
I'm a neurotic smoker since I'm 15 years old. I started before smoking became completely "political incorrect". And I drink a lot of coffee. But I don't drink alcohol or smoke weed or things like that.
If you find something of interest to you don't hesitate to to contact me. Any comments, suggestions, advice or (constructive) criticism is welcome. Feel free to send me an email or, if you prefer, follow me on Mastodon/ActivityPub and reach me there. You can also contact me on Matrix if you want some direct chat. However, I don't spend close attention to my Matrix client although it's mostly running in the background - so be a little patient.
All in all - have fun!
-fab-
