<h1 id="hey-there-">Hey there! 👋</h1>
<p>My Name is Benjamin, and I’m mostly known as <em>BlueFox</em>.</p>
<p>Welcome to this blog! I love tinkering around with electronics, 3D printing stuff and working with wood, but I also do a bit of <code>programming</code> and am an avid self-hoster. This is where I post about my activities from time to time.</p>
<p><strong>Just have a look around!</strong></p>

<h2 id="thinking">Initial considerations</h2>
<p>I’ve been thinking about how to write this post for a long time. What needs to be told, what is unimportant? A lot has to be left out for the sake of clarity, and I might not even remember some of it. In any case, I would like to use this article to explain my intention in starting this blog. But to explain that, you have to understand the origins.</p>
