About

Hi, I’m Magnus. I live in London and work in Tech.

I’m originally from Sweden, but moved to the UK 19 years ago.

If you want to know a bit more about me, you may want to check out my interests below, my Now page or even my values.

My interests:

Optimisation & curation — stationery, personal finances, possessions, computer setup and life in general
Boating — grew up by the sea and still own a little rowing boat
Digital projects — creating things digitally, like this blog
Food — not cooking, but eating and drinking nice things
Travel — a few trips per year, far or near
Reading — sometimes a lot, sometimes not for several months, but nothing longer than 280 pages
Art, design and music — admiring nice things created by others

About the blog

MXGNS is my non-professional and unprofessional personal blog. It is an expression of my longing for the Internet as it used to be, before the algorithms and the hunt for clicks and likes took over.

The blog is mainly a personal journal and a collection of photos, mixed with some random thoughts. I’m posting with myself as the primary audience, and the value I get is purely from creating something by myself.

If anyone comes across my posts, that’s nice, but if they don’t, that’s fine too.

I use AI to build the underlying blog platform, but the content itself is never AI-generated.
