About me

I am Vincent, 30 years old and live in Norderstedt (near Hamburg) with my wife and our dog Smarty.

Golden Retriever

I like all water sports such as surfing, sailing, or snowboarding in the winter. Next year, wakeboarding is planned with the long-term goal of kitesurfing.

At home, I am either in the garden or working on my smart home.

From time to time, I also work on a few side projects. Here are the current implementations, not all of them are functional or “productive”…

Aborted

Hidden

My self-hosted projects and internal network. When i have the time to re-create my blog i will update and show my working state.

Proxmox

Home server with some LXC containers running, some behind caddy for access from the web.

  • Caddy
    • Reverse Proxy
  • Home Assistant
    • Tailscale VPN
  • Unifi
  • OpenWebUI
  • Tandoor

Planned

  • Install Coolify on my Oracle Cloud servers.
    • Or use Ansible or Kamal
    • Current state: I dont like coolify that much. I will probably erase the server and setup a cluster for k8s instead (or Kamal)
  • Re-Install Authelia or other option to secure my reverse proxy to make all services accessible from the web with mfa.
