<p>This page tracks the software, hardware, and peripherals I use in reverse‑chronological order.
Inspired by <a href="https://usesthis.com/">Uses This</a>. I've swapped setups quite a bit over the years as
my focus for them changed. I'll try to shed some light on that as well.</p>
<p>2025</p>
<hr>
<p>During this year I have been focused on the clarification of my life. Living with intention, and the minimalizing of things it takes to do that. For the
rest of this year I will actively be testing out more minimal setups often outsourcing compute to my <a href="">server</a>.</p>
