This last month of the year has been quite interesting. Today I want to share a little bit of it, my reflections on 2025, and my plans for 2026.

December Updates

This month has been characterized by me getting my first full-time job as a software developer. After the long pain in the ass that job searching processes are, I finally found one I'm very happy with. And also, my teammates are just so lovely.

In terms of personal projects, I haven't done that much, but I did manage a few things:

• TaskerBot: Added a few QoL features and made a pretty cool web dashboard, so entering Discord is no longer required.
• DigTube: Updated to the latest version of the map (4.0), which means more options available to find low view videos. I also added an RPM binary because now that I'm using Fedora as my daily driver, I can compile to it. I am yet to compile it for Windows.

2025 Reflections

About 2025, I can't be happier with the outcome of the year. Sincerely, it's been way better than I expected:

• Graduated from my first Bachelor's.
• Got the Linux+ cert.
• Started coding and publishing my personal projects (I made a lot to be fair).
• Kept studying German.
• Went back to Judo and I'm practicing 5 days a week.
• Made great advancements in my genealogy project.
• Most importantly: I got my first job as a software developer, which was my main goal for the year.

2026 Goals

For 2026, my main goals are:

• Keep improving as a developer.
• Consolidate my German knowledge to a B2 level.
• Go to as many Judo competitions as I can and get my black belt.
• Keep getting new leads with my genealogic tree.
• Maybe get involved in an interesting open source project.
• And obviously, enjoy the year.

I hope y'all have a great 2026, I will keep you posted with my progress.

A huge thanks for your support.
