szabster.net is a personal tech blog run by veteran software engineer Mihail Szabolcs. It has been consistently updated for over a decade, where the author primarily shares his experience in programming development, graphics algorithms, and tinkering with UNIX-like systems. It also regularly publishes monthly and yearly personal recaps. The content has a personal, casual style while still being solid and technically valuable.
As a personal blog, its core offering is technical content covering a wide range of topics, including noise generation, pixel art upscaling, FreeDOS tinkering, Lua language notes, and web development tips. It maintains a consistent update schedule of one monthly recap, supports full-site RSS subscription, and all content is released under the CC BY-NC-SA 3.0 open license, which allows non-commercial reuse. All content on the site is completely free, with no paid subscriptions or advertisements whatsoever.
Pros: The entire site has a clean, ad-free design that delivers a very uncluttered reading experience; content focuses on low-level technology and practical experience, and many graphics algorithm-related articles explain complex concepts in simple, accessible terms, making them highly valuable for reference; the author has kept updating for over ten years, building up a rich library of content with far more consistent updates than most personal blogs.
Cons: The site is only available in English, which creates a high barrier for Chinese users; the design is overly minimal, with no built-in search function, making it very inconvenient to locate specific content; as a personal blog, there is no official customer service or technical support, so responses to content corrections are slow.
This site is currently fully accessible directly in China, no VPN/proxy required. It is suitable for reference reading by English-proficient graphics development learners, UNIX-like system enthusiasts, and personal tech blog creators. It has a high reading barrier for general Chinese users, so we do not recommend making a special trip to visit it.
