## Who I am
I'm a random on the internet that likes to write software and build stuff.
I'm also into competitive e-sports and gaming stuff, currently playing a lot of Apex while I wait for Diabotical to come out.
Open source software dev, looking to stop being broke.
## Why does this even exist tho?
Creator of [Freechat](https://gitlab.com/shockrah/freechat), the best chat platform that doesn't **zucc** your data into the ether.(_its also a wip so feel free to contribute_)
I have no idea.
I just like making things and this is a thing I made so here we are.
## What is this site?
## So like what do you write about?
These are the miscellaneous musings of a madman with an internet connection. I mostly post random snippets of things I'm working on or studying. Posts on the main page are more polished that anything in the notes section which are mostly scribbles/rambles/random dev notes.
lol... oh wait ur serious....
## Freechat and my Tin-Foil-Hat-Mode
Sometimes programming topics, other times I'm doing in gaming and other times something completely random.
I suppose my primary goal however is to write about writing software, and my adventures in breaking my Debian install's rice.
I tend to stick to Python, Rust, Bash, and C in terms of languages but I generally just like making things.
Similar to Discord/Slack in that you can have multiple channels to chat(text) but with no data mining.
Also the API to interact with servers has been built with hackers in mind, which in this case just means its completely dead simple to get a basic client working to start chatting. I've already written some clients however so you don't have to.
* Datamining
It's really no secret that these large SaaS chat platforms are mining every bit of data they can. Freechat doesn't do this. Nor will it ever because frankly, I don't care if you trade feetpics or deep fried memes all day. You should be free to chat without some nerd `grep`ing your data every other day.
* Hosting
Also its dummy simple to deploy, the API is a single binary so you can run it behind Nginx, Apache, Caddy, or whatever else you want. The RTC server which is used for voip and chat watching (will be )is also a single binary.
* Basically
Once freechat reaches 1.0 (which is soon) get on it!
