- Tsugu A website of a guy I know online. He mostly writes about tech.
- Iconipup Someone I met online, notably she made the profile picture I use on my site.
- Alan Pope’s Blog The blog of a prolific member of the Ubuntu community. He used to be the spokesperson for Canonical, convincing devs to publish apps on snap.
- Landchad The complete guide to self-hosting services.
- Soatok The blog of a cybersecurity expert (it won’t surprise you that he’s a furry, as cybersecurity experts tend to be).
- iOS404 A list of the many, many web features not implemented in Safari. An absolutely horrible browser, and the company behind it is just as bad.
- The Cursed Computer Iceberg Meme An iceberg, displaying the peculiarity of software and hardware, getting more and more bizarre as we delve deeper.

Matrix Link to heading
Matrix is a decentralized chat app, also used by Germany due to its resistance to vendor lock-in and security. Matrix has been audited, so you can be sure that your conversations on Matrix are secure. I use Element on the desktop and Fluffychat on mobile, because Element on mobile is slooooooow. If you want an Element-like interface on mobile that is actually functional, I recommend Schildichat, an Element fork.
Svelte Link to heading
Svelte is a really simple to use web development framework, and they recently released a pretty good update, Svelte 5 (though I might not be the best person to hold such an opinion because I’m kind of a noob at web development). The previous version of this site was actually written in Svelte, though I have now moved to Hugo.

Minecraft Link to heading
Regardless of the fact that Minecraft got bought by Microsoft (a horrible company, though they do take pretty good care of Minecraft) a while ago, it is still one of the best games I have ever played. I also have a guide for self-hosting Minecraft, because the experience is so much better if you have some people to play with. I also recommend Prism Launcher to manage multiple Minecraft instances, easily install mods and keep them updated.
Scarlet Hollow Link to heading
Scarlet Hollow is honestly the best narrative-driven game I’ve played. The choices you make actually matter and the story line diverges as you do so.
Factorio Link to heading
Factorio is an amazing game for nerds like me. Everything must be optimized. It’s basically a really fancy spreadsheet, but don’t worry, it’s not as boring as staring at a spreadsheet all day. It is especially fun with some friends while playing on a server (I might write a guide on how to host it sometime).
Celeste Link to heading
Celeste is a really really hard game in which you play as Madeline, a girl going through some stuff (depression), and having to eventually confront herself. The story is masterfully written. I am also a huge fan of the game’s art, and even though it’s a 2D game it still manages to look absolutely stunning.
