In an effort to rely on less services, I started doing a lot of self-hosting and rewriting of software. Check out some of the projects I'm doing over on my public [Gitea](https://git.iptq.io)!

### languages
Here's some of the languages I like, in approximate order of my skill/confidence in using them:
- **Rust** I can't say I'm fluent in Rust, but writing code in Rust just feels right. Most of my recent projects have been done in Rust.
- **Go** I like the way this language is opinionated, and makes for very clean code. Unfortunately, because of their design decisions it's relatively lacking in language features.
- **Python** One of my favorite languages by far. Aside from its weakness in performance, I love how the language looks. I do have several bones to pick, especially towards its dependency ecosystem.
- **JavaScript** Although I'm trying to step away from JavaScript, I find myself using it from time to time simply out of ease of use and plethora of libraries.
- **C** Largely prefer this over C++ because of much finer control over what's happening.
- **OCaml** Learned this from a functional programming class, and I still use it from time to time; I kinda see it as the "Python" of functional languages.
- **C++** Good for when I did competitive programming because of its very comprehensive standard library.

For my desktop environment, I've got [i3](https://i3wm.org/), a tiling window manager. I like it because it's lightweight and doesn't use much battery. My config can be found [here](https://git.iptq.io/michael/dotfiles/src/branch/master/.config/i3/config). I tried i3gaps at one point but didn't feel like trying to fix the rendering artifacts so I switched back.
My desktop environment is [i3](https://i3wm.org) on X11. I like it because it's lightweight and doesn't use much battery. Even after many years my laptop can still sustain 5-6 hours of prolonged usage.

## my phone
My phone is running the latest version of LineageOS without Google Apps, in a small effort to liberate myself from Google services. Most of the apps that I need notifications from on my phone can contact servers directly without going through Google's Firebase Cloud Messaging, which is where push notifications traditionally go.
First, here's a list of free software that I use, available from [F-Droid](https://f-droid.org/en/), a free-software app store:
- [DAVx5](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/at.bitfire.davdroid/). Great for syncing my calendar, contacts, and todo list between my computer and my phone. With a self-hosted CalDAV server, my data is in my hands.
- [DNSFilter](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/dnsfilter.android). Creates a local VPN and selectively blocks requests based on existing blacklists. This actually filters a lot of advertising and tracking data on the regular.
- [Termux](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.termux/). It's a terminal on your phone. Why not?
- [Weechat Android](https://f-droid.org/en/packages/com.ubergeek42.WeechatAndroid/). Weechat is an IRC client that can act like a server. With this app, my phone connects to that server and retrieves messages, including sending me notifications for new highlights and such.
Other software I use include:
- [Authy](https://authy.com/). Unfortunately, until I figure out my 2-factor backup plan, I'm going to have to stick with Authy since it handles backups well. The long-term solution here is to use backup codes, but I haven't gotten around to sorting that out yet.
- [Firefox](https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/mobile/). Yes, Firefox is on Android.
- [Signal](https://signal.org/). Encrypted chat that uses phone numbers for identity so you can basically replace SMS with almost no user-interface changes.
And a slew of other non-free apps that have pretty specific uses, though I think I've crippled my phone to the point where many of those apps are unusable. One of these days I'll go in and purge them again.
## this website
The stack for this website looks like:
- The [source code](https://git.iptq.io/michael/blog) is written as a set of Gutenberg config files.
- This is then transpiled into static HTML + resources using [Gutenberg](https://www.getgutenberg.io/), a static site generator.
- This is then transpiled into static HTML + resources using [Zola](https://getzola.org/), a static site generator written with Rust.
- Changes are deployed using Git hooks.
- Static files are served from a web root using [nginx](https://nginx.org/en/) through a virtual host.
- And here it is!
For deployment, I'm using [dip](https://github.com/acmumn/dip), a customizable webhook server that I wrote that rebuilds the source code on push.
