Digitally Adrift

Overhauling my setup

Was inspired by Elena Rossini to try out Yunohost. What started as a brief trial of loading it onto a small linode server turned into a whole weekend of reworking my digital workflow. I’ve run a homelab server for about 4 years now and have a lot of useful tools on there. Due to ISP limitations and not really wanting to open up my firewall any more than necessary, I’ve not opened up my homelab for access outside my home network.

I’ve been bouncing around a lot lately, trying a number of different note-taking/Zettelkasten/whatever you call them apps: Notion, Obsidian, Logseq, and Org mode (for Vim, not Emacs). I love all the features they have, and the ability to connect related pages and build maps of relationships is really cool. Unfortunately, I’m just not sure how I can really benefit from it. If I were in school, I think it would be a great tool for keeping up with learning different topics.

Working on transferring my domain regitsration from Squarespace to Porkbun. I originally had the domain through Google but they stopped offering the service and sold it off to Squarspace last year. Nothing against Squarespace. All the functionality and options are available and well documented. However, Porkbun $11.20 per year for digitallyadrift.com and Squarespace is $20. Both services have the same feature set. So I’m transferring this domain and if I like the Porkbun experience, I’ll probably move the couple other domains I have over as well.

Currently reading: Golden Son by Pierce Brown 📚 Book 2 here we go!

Finished reading: Red Rising by Pierce Brown 📚 First book of 2025 finished. This one was a pretty quick read and a reread for me so that helped too. Enjoyed it as much as the first time.

Currently reading: Mystery in Rocky Mountain National Park by Aaron Johnson. One or two chapters a night to the kids at bedtime. The whole family is enjoying it. Excited to continue the series 📚

After almost 4 years of back and forth I finally pulled the trigger on buying a keyboard case for my Samsung Galaxy Tab S7. I’ve mostly just got it set up so far but it’s been pleasant to use. The track pad isn’t the best thing in the world but other than that it’s been a great experience.

Modified my mnml theme to use some Catppuccin colors. Still might play around with it some more buti like it so far.

Was interested by this post and planning am on trying and make my feed pages a little more web friendly. Some searching in the micro.blog help pages provide some details on how to implement that here. Going to give it a shot when I get some time.
