About
synql.xyz is my ongoing experiment to …
- liberate my data from big-tech,
- learn and tinker with open-source infrastructure,
- offer friends (and maybe you) a privacy-respecting platform.
Everything lives on a Proxmox box in my bedroom and reaches the public internet through a WireGuard tunnel to a VPS. Yes, the upstream is literally cellular data.
This site is a work in progress, expect new polish and features as time allows.
Status
No public services are open quite yet.
Coming Soon
- Matrix
- Mastodon
- SearXNG
- Invidious
- And more!
FAQ
Why the funny name?
Because it sounded cool! "Sync" and "SQL", get it?
Why cellular data?
Because I don't have traditional wired internet where I live. A WireGuard tunnel to a VPS lets me punch through CG-NAT and port-forward like a normal person.
Why is it semi-private?
Bandwidth is limited and I want to keep things stable while I learn the ropes. I'll consider opening it in the future.
What's next?
Polish, monitoring, backups, then rolling out the services listed above.
