I'm a @gnome Foundation member who maintains Upscaler and Refine, develops GNOME Calendar, and actively works on accessibility throughout GNOME.
Please consider donating if it is not too much trouble: https://tesk.page/#donate
Just a couple of warnings for those who are considering following me:
• For personal posts and posts that I believe deserve serious attention, I'll take the liberty of boosting them a few times over the course of a few days.
• I won't add any content warning for serious topics that are actionable.
• I am vocal about FOSS and real-world politics. If I notice unacceptable behavior from someone, I will likely call them or their behavior out in public. Expect drama. However, in return, please call me out of my unacceptable behavior.
• This might come to a surprise, but I have feelings. Expect rant posts.
• No alt text or bad alt text, no boost.

I post about Linux, free and open-source software (FOSS), music, cats, politics, writing, and anything else that comes to mind. Hates gen-AI slop.
