About me and my path in blogging
From a Telegram crypto-price channel to accessibility analysis and AI agents: my path since 2021.
An archival account from April 2026. The tools and results described refer to that period.
How it started
Hello everyone. Here I want to tell you a little about myself.
I started actively blogging in 2021, almost everywhere except VK. Now I have finally decided to wake up here too 🙂.
In 2021 I created a Telegram channel. At first it had no clear focus. For roughly the first ten months, almost all it published was a daily cryptocurrency price update. Understandably, that was not particularly interesting to readers. But the channel kept going, partly because people had to subscribe to use my bots.
Around 2022–2023, the content became more substantial: I began writing about crypto projects and evaluating their quality, while also sharing my own development work and work-related news.
Around that time I wrote a commissioned Near Wallet accessibility analysis.
Losing interest, then finding it again
In 2024 I became apathetic. I almost stopped programming because my projects had not become genuinely in demand. One bot was still running, though: I used it myself, and it had around 300 users. I continued analyzing projects.
In 2025 I wrote more reviews focused on interface accessibility, including Moni and the Open Academy Telegram mini app. There were other projects too, such as Ethos, which I thought I might write about separately.
In 2026 the AI field began developing rapidly. The discouragement disappeared; I had energy and inspiration again!
Why? I realized I could now build things that interested me and other people much faster. That is how I became immersed in AI.
What I write about
Many people know Alice, GigaChat or ChatGPT. Fewer have heard of OpenClaw, Hermes and similar tools. With them, you can build an AI assistant that genuinely helps in life and at work.
For example, it can:
- Find information and help with analysis.
- Process data.
- Carry out some tasks in a browser.
- Send useful notifications and scheduled digests.
At 18:00 I receive a short list of posts from Telegram channels and chats I follow. I scan the summary, then open only what deserves attention.
That is what this blog is about, along with my projects, skills for AI assistants, and the accessibility of websites and apps. Welcome!
