Writing
Notes and essays on why we are building a new Linux desktop, how its pieces work, and where it still falls short.
Building an OS
Why collaboration belongs below applications, why native lost to the browser, and how resources and actions turn undo, search, accessibility and agents into one problem.
How things arrive
Packages, records, and why adding software to a computer should execute no code—plus settings as a live CRDT syntax tree.
Security
GrapheneOS-style security posture for a multi-device Linux desktop: person-scoped account keys, TPM without hardware lock-in, and unlocking that costs attestability instead of wiping your data.
Who tilo is for
The honest per-audience version of what tilo offers—for people who just want a computer that works, collaborators, teams, self-hosters, free software people, and agents—and where it still falls short.
