  • I have an absolutely insane amount of things running across two machines right now because I’m a moron. XD

    But the ones that actually see a significant amount of usage are:

    • Romm (Video game rom archive)
    • Plex & Jellyfin (Movie and TV streaming)
    • Komga (Book/Comic/Manga archive)
    • Nextcloud (File/Cloud storage)
    • Metube (YouTube downloader)
    • Overseer/Sonarr/Radarr (Media Requests for Plex)
    • PeerTube (Fedi YouTube)
    • Pixelfed (Fedi Instagram)
    • Mastodon (You all know what this is lol)
    • Audiobookshelf (Audiobook archive)
    • Immich (Photo backup and organization)
    • Mealie (Recipe manager)
    • Vikunja (To-do list app)




















  • Oddly enough, the thing that got me back into gaming after like a 7 year slump was Astro’s Playroom on the PS5. It’s a free pack-in title that literally functions as a tech demo, and yet it’s one of the tightest, most fun 3D platformers I’ve ever played. It’s a fairly short game but the collectables are SO cool- pieces of a mural celebrating PS history and various pieces of hardware from gaming history as big model statues. It felt really rewarding to complete the history museum and the levels were honestly a blast. I also love the cleverness behind one of the boss choices but I won’t say much else.

    But also, I’m a pretty big fan of history and archival so it kind of hit that for me ^^; But legit the game is super nice and made me realise that I was just playing a lot of padded, long, rushed games- and this was anything but.
