Pyrine

Pyrine is a mostly private network of self-hosted services running on hardware I own. I wanted to take back control over my data and become more self-sustained. This has been by far my largest focus as I move off the cloud.

What is Pyrine?

In general, Pyrine is an invite-only private network consisting of multiple services self hosted by me. Many of these services have been written from scratch with help from a few dedicated friends [thanks everyone for the help, its much appreciated!].

The main goal of pyrine is to move to a more decentralized and self-sustained lifestyle for full privacy and control over data in a growing age of decreases in privacy, AI, and mistrust, misuse and over collection of data and personal information from corporations.

Pyrine also aims to provide its services to highly trusted people, such as friends. By the way, if you would like access, dont be afraid to reach out!

History

  1. December 25, 2025Purchased parts for a storage server

    Yeah so I bought stuff to make a storage server. So what? Spent nearly $1000 😬. This will be the first rack-mountable server.

  2. November 6, 2025Pyrine name and domain registration

    The Pyrine name was constructed and the domain pyrine.net was registered. This was mostly just a combination of the words pyro, graphene, graphite, and pyrite. After a huge struggle to find something fitting for the blazing sword.
