Rebuilding Instafluff.tv

So here's the thing — my old site was basically a Twitch landing page. Big purple embed front and center, some links to socials, and that was it. And look, Twitch was a huge part of my life for years. I built an incredible community there, we made hundreds of open source projects together live on stream, and I wouldn't trade any of it. But it's 2026, and I'm a lot more than a Twitch streamer now. I'm a Principal Software Engineer at Microsoft, I live in Prague, I run side businesses, I wrote a cookbook, I got my pilot's license — and my website didn't reflect any of that. It was time.

The old site was built with Astro, which is a great framework honestly. But I wanted something I could grow into. I picked Next.js with static export because it gives me the best of both worlds: I get React components, MDX for blog posts, and a modern dev experience — but the output is just static HTML deployed to GitHub Pages. No server to maintain, no monthly hosting bill, just push to master and it's live. For where this site is right now, that's perfect. I don't need a server to serve blog posts and a portfolio.

But here's where it gets interesting. I also own comfy.network, and the long-term plan is to turn this whole thing into something bigger — a community platform, user profiles, the works. Think of instafluff.tv right now as phase one: my personal home base. Blog, projects, about me, links. The stuff you'd want to see if you googled "Instafluff" or if I sent you a link from Twitter. Phase two is comfy.network — auth, social features, the whole platform dream. I'm architecting everything now so that transition doesn't require burning it all down and starting over.

For now though? I just want a place to write, to showcase the projects I'm proud of, and to have a corner of the internet that actually feels like me. Not a Twitch page. Not a LinkedIn profile. Just... Instafluff. Welcome to the new site. It's going to be a fun ride.
