Sometimes people ask me what my setup looks like for remote work. I decided to try to keep a list of the hardware and software I’m using.

People call usually call such pages “my /uses page”.

So, here’s mine. Hope you’ll find this useful, somehow.

Hardware

Machines & Phone

• MacBook Pro 14", from 2021;
• iPad Air (5th gen);
• A Linux Desktop with an AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor, with 64 GB of memory, 1 TB NVME and a GeForce GT 1030;
• A 2 node Raspberry Pi cluster running k3s and random stuff;
• A Synology DS720+ NAS, for backups et al;
• An iPhone 13 Pro.

Keyboard / Mouse

• Moonlander Mk1 keyboard and a Magic Trackpad 2;
• Sometimes I use the Logitech MX Master 3 mouse and Logitech MX Keys keyboard

Displays

• Dell U2718Q, 27", 4K, IPS

Sound & Video

• Bose QC35 II
• AirPods Pro
• Webcam Logitech C920
• Blue Yeti USB Microphone
• Baseus light bar

Rack

I’m a nerd and I like racks. So, I built my own. 100% over engineering for my home network, but I always wanted to work on one, and now I have.

It has some Unify gear, UPS, plus the aforementioned NAS and Raspberry Pies.

Software

Here are some of the apps I use everyday and/or enjoy using:

• Neovim: Editor.
• Ghostty (beta): Terminal emulator.
• Tmux: Terminal multiplexer.
• Zoxide: z/autojump.
• Fish: Shell.
• Nix and home-manager: Configuration management of (eventually) all my computers
• Berkeley Mono: Font.
• Hammerspoon: To script macOS with Lua.
• Dash: (offline) Documentation.

I’m a simple man, and no particular email, notes, or calendar app seems worth the trouble/money for me, so I use macOS/iOS default ones.
