Unfortunately last couple of years I did not have time and energy to write to my blog. But I was continuing to work on audioserve – adding some new features and also updating to latest dependencies.
I added renovate to audioserve project, which helps a lot with keeping dependencies up to date.

I started couple of interesting things, but was lazy and demotivated to sum them up even in small article. I also changed my job few months back, which kept me quite busy, but positive impact was I’m waking up from lethargy caused by covid and past job.
So I’ll try to quickly summarize past year or so in here, it’ll be nothing special, just to have things accounted:
