Tech without the corporate bloat.
Documenting FOSS and calling out the nonsense.
Explore my journey into privacy-first tech and self-hosting.
Welcome to The Unknown Universe. I write from a privacy‑first perspective about free and open source software (FOSS), Linux and practical self‑hosting.
This site is a mix of hands‑on guides, honest reviews and personal stories aimed at helping you take back control of your data and run services you can trust. Expect clear steps, config examples and what actually worked (and what didn’t) in my home lab.
My home lab runs on Proxmox and containers — mostly Docker — with tools such as AdGuard Home and Smokeping. Dive into categories like Home Lab, Linux & FOSS, Privacy & Security, and Tech Stories. Join the conversation on Mastodon, subscribe for new posts, or drop a comment.
