Why This Website

· 2 minutes read

“because everybody deserves their little corner of the internet.” i once read this while scrolling the web. i don’t remember where nor who wrote it. but it stuck with me.

since then i wanted my own “home” here, on the web. not a portfolio. not a linkedin page. just a home. so i finally decided to buy a house (get a domain on cloudflare) and start building it with kinda cheap materials (some markdown, vanilla html and css). nothing fancy or heavy. just enough to run, and be intemporal.

since i was about 12, i’ve been consuming from the internet. games, tutorials, videos, forums, blog posts, from people i’ll never meet to people i had met on some occasions. i leanrt and grew here. so i told myself that if i could expose some content, give something back even if it’s small, even if nobody reads it, then i should.

as long as i remember, i loved writing things down. i used to juggle between multiple note taking apps before realizing that the only thing i really had to do is to write, without thinking where or how. that’s why i like the Obsidian app from @kepano. it’s light, and all in plain markdown.

writing is an abstraction (even language is). and i write about what i learn, what i care about. not because i think i have all the answers but because i believe the act of putting thoughts out there matters.

so yeah, this website exists because i once read somewhere that everybody deserves their little corner on the web. and i finally decided to claim mine :) .
