I'm a guy passionate about IT, 3D printing, drones, and many other tech-related
things.

I haven't published any interesting projects yet, though I hope to entertain
you with [my blog](/it/posts) and with the things I occasionally publish on my
[Git server](https://git.nicolabelluti.me/).

In the future I intend to deploy several services over some free VPS, like
Monero and Tor nodes and various privacy-oriented frontends for social media,
like [Austin Huang](https://austinhuang.me/) does with <https://bus-hit.me/>.

### My setup

My laptop is a second-hand Lenovo Thinkpad T480s with unlocked BIOS and [Arch
Linux](https://archlinux.org/) (btw), though I'm considering switching to
[NixOS](https://nixos.org/). My phone is a Google Pixel 6 Pro with [Graphene
OS](https://grapheneos.org/).

Yes, all my devices run on custom ROMs; Stock firmwares are *boooooring*.

*Almost* all the servers I use are mine, except for some VPSes here and there.

### People I admire

I suggest you to check those people's websites:

* [fasterthanlime](https://fasterthanli.me/)
* [Austin Huang](https://austinhuang.me/)
* [ThePrimeagen](https://youtube.com/ThePrimeagen/) (YouTube link)

### Projects I like

Here are some projects you might also like. Maybe there will be an article
about some of them in the future...

* [Neovim](https://neovim.io/)
* [Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/)
* [Meshtastic](https://meshtastic.org/) and LoRa in general
* IPv6

I still have to dig into these ones, but they seem promising:

* [NixOS](https://nixos.org/)
* [Go](https://go.dev/) (lang)
* [Gleam](https://gleam.run/) (lang)

Expect to see some open platforms like [Matrix](https://matrix.org) in the
future!
