Welcome to the New LinuxNiche Blog

After almost a decade, LinuxNiche is back! Originally launched in 2009, this blog was a place where I shared insights, reviews, and technical write-ups on firewalls, networking, and Linux-based projects. Over the years, technology evolved, my homelab expanded, and my focus shifted—so it was time for a reboot.

The last post was in 2016, and rather than carrying forward outdated content, I’ve decided to start fresh. The deprecated articles have been removed, and moving forward, this blog will serve as an informational outlet for the projects I work on in my homelab. Whether it’s about self-hosting, automation, Kubernetes, networking, or hardware reviews, this will be the place to document it.

The New LinuxNiche Store

Alongside the blog, LinuxNiche has also launched a brand-new store: shop.linuxniche.com . The store features tech-inspired designs on mugs, apparel, and other merchandise, perfect for fellow sysadmins, developers, and tech enthusiasts.

What’s Next?

This blog will focus on:

• Homelab projects – from hardware builds to network topology.
• Linux & open-source tools – tutorials and hands-on experiences.
• Virtualization & self-hosting – Proxmox, Docker, Kubernetes, and more.
• Tech product reviews – gear and software I use daily.

If you enjoyed LinuxNiche back in the day, or if you’re just finding it now, I hope you find something useful here. Stay tuned for regular updates!

Welcome back, and happy tinkering!
