About this site

Bearings is a personal blog by Janek Bodzioch. It covers many different topics but mostly revolves around conscious use of tech, ideas and stories from my trips, ad hoc commentary fueled by my daily observations, and sometimes stories.

Free access

You can freely access all my posts. I believe the ideas should be accessible and always open for debate, so I don't plan to put anything behind the paywall. If you enjoy it, consider subscribing. If you love it, do not hesitate to support my coffee fund.

Social Media

I am in a weird relationship with social media: on one hand I hate the everpresent digital consumerism, on the other I love sharing my own thoughts and opinions. Well, let's just say social media are tools like anything else and I am still not sure how to fully use them without falling into the traps of doomscrolling.

That being said, you can follow me on Instagram, Threads, X, Bluesky, hell you can even check out my Linkedin


Ghost

This blog was originally posted on Wordpress, I had my domain and posted occassaonilly but over time the prices hiked up and it became more and more restrictive. I am always on the lookout for cool new tech solutions and when I learned about Ghost, I decided to give it a try. It turned out to be just what I was looking for: fast, minimal and self-hostable.

If you are looking for an outlet for your own blog, give Ghost a try!
