I Am the Cloud - running the internet from a spare bedroom.

If you identify with that, then you’re one of us.

Each week this newsletter distills the firehose of homelab news, hacks, and debates into a quick‑read briefing you can skim between reboots:

• Release Radar – the firmware, kernels, and gear worth updating now.
• AI & Self‑Hosting Corner – LLM tricks, and automation that keeps data on your own drives.
• Community Buzz – Reddit rants, GitHub gems, and rack‑mounted dad jokes you might’ve missed.
• Tips, Tricks & Deals – CLI incantations, ZFS gotchas, and hardware bargains that pass the performance‑per‑watt sniff test.

Written by Anton—a sysadmin‑turned‑storyteller who thinks flashing firmware counts as self‑care—I Am the Cloud cuts through vendor hype and cloud FOMO. Expect pragmatic takes, a pinch of snark, and actionable insights to keep your homelab humming faster, cheaper, and under your complete control.

Hit subscribe, top up the coffee, and let’s out‑cloud the cloud together.
