Some time ago I’ve gotten myself into this thing called DN42. It’s basically a huge interconnected mesh VPN that aims to mirror the way the Internet works with BGP and other stuff.

As of right now my setup is pretty basic — only one node, and it’s a container located on my homeserver. However, it’s still been great fun experimenting and somehow I didn’t break the network (hopefully not yet).

In the future I might add some more nodes, but I’m still having a hard time deciding which provider to use. Right now I’m thinking of TierHive, mostly because it’s cheaaaap but I’m waiting on them to add IPv6 support (cause as of right now only NATted IPv4 is supported, which isn’t ideal).

The obligatory first post. Decided to finally start a blog of some kind after thinking about it for a while — probably nothing much will come out of it but we’ll see. Expect technical ramblings or some guides or stuff, I still don’t really know. We’ll see, I guess.

I decided to use Hugo, although I would’ve preffered if the blog served itself (via a single binary or something). Would’ve used the original bear blog if only custom domains were not paid. Valid, of course, but I don’t give that much value to this blog to be paying to host it.
