There's always a
decision behind it.
DiazMode is about making tech fit real life. Whether it's tech, a car, or the house we live in, nothing I do is just because. There's always a decision behind it.
Real workflows. Real setups. Real life. I share the systems that survive contact with two kids, a job, and an actual schedule, and skip the ones that only work in a studio.
My name is Mauricio Farias Diaz, most people just call me Mauri. No hype. No staged setups. Just real thinking from a real life.
What drives every video
- Reduce friction — if a tool adds steps to your day, it's not a tool.
- Decide on purpose — every choice has a reason you can say out loud.
- Calm over clever — a boring system that runs beats a smart one that breaks.
- Real life wins — if it doesn't survive family life, it doesn't ship.
Fair questions.
Straight answers.
What DiazMode about?
Making tech fit real life, not the other way around. Workflows, setups, and systems that hold up outside a studio: with kids, a job, and a normal schedule. Every video starts from a real decision I had to make, and shows the thinking behind it.
How often do new videos come out?
When they're ready. I'd rather ship one video with a real point than three made to feed an algorithm. Subscribe on YouTube and you'll know the moment one lands.
Can I suggest a topic?
Yes, and please do. Drop it in the comments of any video, or email studio@diazmode.com. The best ideas come from real problems real people actually have.
What kind of tech do you cover?
Smart home, homelabs, 3D printing, developer tools, workflows, setups, anything where I had to make a real decision and think it through. If I can explain why I chose it, it's worth a video.
Do you do collaborations or sponsorships?
I'm open to it, if the product genuinely fits the channel. I won't recommend something I wouldn't use in my own setup. Email studio@diazmode.com with what you have in mind.
Are you affiliated with the products you show?
No, unless I say otherwise. Everything I show is something I bought and use myself. If that ever changes, I'll say so clearly.
Say hi, pitch an idea,
or just talk setups.
Email is the fastest way to reach me. For everything else, the comments are always open.
