You are not
alone.

A small constellation of open-source tools for community, making, and staying connected—radio, dev spaces, memory, even a browser-based OS. Focusing on speed, size, maintainability, and freedom.

// PRINCIPLES

The foundation

You are not alone.

Build alongside people again—through shared tools, shared spaces, and shared channels that keep the human part intact.

We are building our future.

Small, composable projects that help you learn by doing, and keep ownership close to home.

Cutting the noise.

No subscription tiers. Just efficient binaries and web apps. Seeing the actual capabilities of the current tech.

// PROJECTS

Take what helps. Share what you improve.

Some are about voice. Some about space to build. Some about memory and meaning. All are practical, human-scale, and open.

voice

ORL (openradio.live)

A small live audio stack that takes an audio stream in and serves a public HLS radio stream, with a listener web app and a live dashboard.

> Local voices, reliable sharing
space

MHNOS (os.mhn.lol)

An isolated, in-browser dev environment that feels like a tiny OS: filesystem, shell, worker "processes," JS + Python, simple app scaffolding, and build/export tooling.

> Safer, lighter building
space

dev-con

A clean Ubuntu-based dev container image you can drop into any folder, so you have compilers/tools ready without re-configuring your system every time.

> Consistent environments
memory

ourmems

A WIP personal memories app for stories/journals/photos organized on a calendar. A place for life notes to live somewhere calmer than a social feed.

> Memory matters
memory

bplus-searchrs

A fast Rust + HTML/JS app with a local database for conversation/research memory, model/provider selection, and add-your-own APIs through the UI.

> Your searchable working memory
web

bplus-webwrap

A tiny CLI app that launches web apps/URLs using the OS WebView, so you can run lightweight "web tools" without a full browser.

> Just a window, no overhead
space

build-llamas

Scripts and a Docker setup to produce a fast static build of llama.cpp with Vulkan (AMD/Intel) support.

> Repeatable local inference
web

tools-page

A simple "tool menu" page: a list of your apps/tools with descriptions and tags. Discovery should feel like a shelf, not a maze.

> tools.mhn.lol
voice

matrix-comms

A practical Matrix server setup (Synapse + Postgres + Element) with notes/scripts for running calls/video via TURN. A dependable "room" outside the noise.

> Your own place to meet

More projects live in the repos.

// ECOSYSTEM

People are scattered right now.

These projects aim to make it easier to gather—around music, around ideas, around work, around shared tools—without needing a giant platform in the middle.

Some projects are about voice (a community radio station you can run without heavy infrastructure). Some are about space to build (a dev OS that lives in your browser). Some are about memory and meaning (a place to keep stories, notes, and moments). Some are about making the web usable again—lighter, quieter, more personal.

If you've been building alone, you don't have to stay there.

Come say hi.

If any of this feels familiar—building late, learning in public, wanting better tools without the baggage—you're welcome here. Use the repos, fork them, remix them, tell me what broke, tell me what you need.

Some of these projects are polished, some are WIP, all of them are made with the same goal: help people do more together, with less noise. If you've been doing it alone, we'll make it easier side-by-side.
