Bio ★Victor

Hi, I'm Victor. I build my own corner of the internet — servers, pipelines, models — and I'm happily obsessed with AI. What started as curiosity about self-hosting turned into running a real platform with real users.

Based between languages. French, German, Russian, Chinese. And whatever Python counts as.

If it can be self-hosted, I've probably tried. If it broke at 3am, I definitely fixed it myself.

Journey.

2021 → now, no skips 

2021

Chess Games

pota02.github.io. 1500 rating. Communist chess. Dictator chess. Mega chess. Mini chess.

2022

Noendhorizon

Minecraft hosting for 50+ players. Beijing era. Learned community management. Deprecated.

2023

Maxim AI

240M parameter model. MoE to LLaMA to GPT. Trained on coding Q/A. Vision attempt failed. Not enough POWAHHHH. Retired — for a while.

2024

Alflora

My version of GitHub. CI/CD and storage, owned by me. Self-hosted infrastructure.

2025

Alflora goes live

Pages launches: real users deploy real sites on my server. First customers, first 3am outages, first lessons in uptime.

2026

Maxim 2.0

Maxim reborn as a live AI chat at maxim.alflora.app. The POWAHHHH problem solved by borrowing it.

Now

Running Alflora — a self-hosted cloud with git, CI, storage, and live customer deployments — from a server I administer end to end. Maxim is back from the dead as Maxim 2.0. Still learning, still self-hosting everything I can.
