It was supposed to be just yet another web page with musical releases reviews, but after trying to write something like that, I've found out that I'm not good at it. So I've decided to start a blog where I can write anything that comes to my mind.

### Who am I?

I'm a musician and a geek, who works full time as a DevOps engineer, whatever it means. Thanks to my job, I know how to run self-hosted services pretty well, and that's helping me achieve my goal of bringing the indie culture everywhere I can. I'm trying to separate myself from global companies as a user as much as it's possible in my daily life.
### What is Bad Houseplants?
Also, I'm a Linux lover, what doesn't really correlate with my will to make music. I hope that one day we will see that developers will see that Linux is a real OS that can be used as a daily driver. And building software for Linux is important just like building for MacOS and Windows. I hope that we will be able to use not only open source solutions working on Linux, but also closed-source proprietary ones.

I still hope that one day I'll open a recording studio under this name, but I'm not sure when it's even going to be possible. The second thing > that I can talk about is IT. I think it can be interesting, but I don't want to kind of stigmatized as an IT blogger. And then I've decided that I would like to write something about indie culture, about DIY philosophy and all this punk related stuff. So let's say that is a blog about indie*
### Music, Beats and Arrangements
### Wanna join?
## Music
If you want to publish anything here, I don't mind. But for doing that you need to have at least basic `git` knowledge because this blog is written as code. You can check the [source code](https://git.badhouseplants.net/badhouseplants/badhouseplants-net) to understand if you're ready or not. I'm hosting my own `Gitea` instance, so you will have to request an account ([just email me](mailto:allanger@zohomail.com) or find me in [telegram](https://t.me/allanger)), when you got one, you're ready to start writing. If you have any questions about how to start, I'm always open for a conversation.
> I always thought I was a musician
[Check out what I've got](https://funkwhale.badhouseplants.net)
Thanks,
You can find everything I consider ready enough to be shown on my [FunkWhale](https://funkwhale.badhouseplants.net/library) instance. Also, my music can be found on many streaming services, and yes, I know that it's not a very independent way of doing things, but it's one of many exceptions 🙃.
All of my beats are waiting for somebody to do something with them. I'm giving them all for donation, so if you happen to like any, just shoot me a message. I can re-arrange and remix them as much as possible. I can mix your tracks, and I really will to do that, it doesn't matter what kind of music it is, I'm ready to work with everything, if I like it *(at least a little bit)*.
## IT
> I'm a DevOps after all
[Visit my gitea](https://git.badhouseplants.net)
For I'm a DevOps I'm working a lot with Kubernetes, Containers, Linux, etc. And that's the root of my intention to move to Linux completely.
I hope I will do my contribution to the world of Linux music production too. I'm hosting my own Gitea instance. There you will be able to find all my code (or almost all of my code).
If you made it to here, you might think that it's the point of all of this existing. Self-hosted blog, a music streaming service, and git. **This guy is just a fucking geek! **
And yes, you're partially right. The main reason it exists is that I'm trying to follow and promote `indie/punk` culture, that is not only applies to arts. And that's going to be covered in my posts, I hope.

### If you're still here,
I'm looking for people with the same mindset as me, to make music or to code together, or anything. So I would be happy to get connections on [Mastodon](https://mastodon.social/@allanger)
Oi!
