I have compiled most, if not all, techno-mage related single images, adjacent story lines and lore on the page:

I have yet to sort it and add proper descriptions, but to the impatient, you can delve in.
In the span of 2 years, since the mage first saw the light of the fediverse, I have created over 280 images (of varying quality).
Thank you, fans of unix_surrealism, there would be no mage without you.
Go ahead! They're all great anyways ;)
Please don't judge.
The thing is, I have never used a BSD-based system so most of the jokes are lost on me.
OK, I like lots of them but I’d pick sentient weaponry. And I don't know if there’s a hidden meaning behind this one but it looks charming. However, not even the presumably subsequent panel explains much. I can only really relate to the Big Tech and hardware ones. I thought I would have an advantage because I have walked Prahou (Czech for “through Prague”) many times but apparently not.
And I know that 🐡 is the OpenBSD mascot but is this a Monty Python reference?
Anyway, the art style, characters and themes remind me of the YT channel vewn.
For me it's a mix of vewn and u m a m i
i didn't know vewn, and i didn't know umami. thank you for mentioning them!
