  Personal Vault #011 I came across an interesting BBC article today about the return of digital cameras, iPods and wired earphones. At first glance, it looks like a nostalgia piece. But the part that caught my attention was much deeper. One of the people quoted in the article, Professor Andrew Przybylski from Oxford, talks about people wanting more control over their experiences. He contrasts modern digital services, where content is constantly pushed at us, with older devices where you delib...

  Personal Vault #008 Today, Personal Vault reached its first major milestone. The proof of concept is complete. It can now upload, organise and access real content. Movies, photos and files all make it into the Vault through the front end, and the end-to-end workflow works. That's more important than it sounds. When a project is just an idea, you're constantly asking, "Will this actually work?" Today, that question was answered. From this point on, the challenge isn't...

  Personal Vault #007 – Security continued The Vault now has a proper front entrance. The public site at pv-hq.com remains open, but the Enter the Vault button leads to a separate private application at vault.pv-hq.com. I have been developing the front end and login page so entering the Vault feels deliberate—not like opening another generic admin panel. The design is dark, simple and consistent with the rest of the project. The login is now connected to my own backend, private pages are prote...

  Personal Vault #006 I've released the first short podcast about Personal Vault. Rather than talking about hardware or software, this one explores an idea: Vault Key. What if logging in didn't require a username, email address or password? What if your identity stayed with you, instead of being scattered across hundreds of online accounts? This is just the beginning of that conversation, and I'd genuinely like to hear what others think. 🎙️ Is it time to rethink how we prove who we...

  Personal Vault #005 – Learning to Say “Not Yet” One thing I’ve learned during this project is that building isn’t just about deciding what to do. It’s also about deciding what not to do. This week I was very tempted to start building Mission Control—the interface that will eventually tie the whole Personal Vault together. It would have been fun. It also would have been the wrong decision. Instead, we finished the boring bits: * fixed the storage architecture, * hardened the server, * agre...

  Personal Vault #003 — We Have a Front Door Every house starts with foundations. But sooner or later, someone has to build the front door. This week Personal Vault got its first public home: 🌐 https://pv-hq.com Right now it's intentionally simple. No login. No media library. No clever features. Just a place that explains what Personal Vault is and where the project is heading. The funny thing is... I've probably spent more time building this landing page than installing Debian, Docker and...

  Personal Vault #002 — The Product One thing I want to make clear early in this project: I'm not building a Jellyfin server. I'm building Personal Vault. Today Jellyfin handles media playback. Tomorrow it might be something else. If that day comes, I want to replace one component—not rebuild the entire system. That's why one of the first design principles I wrote was: Personal Vault is the product. Everything else is infrastructure. The library matters more than the player....

  Personal Vault #001 – Bye Bye Windows Operation "Bye Bye Windows" has officially begun. 👋🪟 Today, an old HP desktop took its first step towards a new life. Windows is gone. Debian 13 (Trixie) is taking over. The end goal isn't just "running Linux." This machine is going to become Personal Vault – my own self-hosted platform for media, photos, documents, backups, and whatever else I decide to build along the way. I've used Windows for decades, so this is very much...

  @rdarmila I would focus on the "almost always" bit

  @rdarmila sure, but you can't tell people how to live their lives and what to think just because they are a minority
