It me! I'm Rohan Kumar, a.k.a. Seirdy (online handle).
Canonical versions:
Staging/rough-draft Tildeverse mirror:
See the Director's Cut of my bio in the "about" page:
Tech stuff: I care a lot about accessibility, and often use screen readers and forced colors to deal with overstimulation. I'm a FLOSS (Free, Libre, and Open-Source Software) enthusiast, software minimalist, and a CS+Math undergrad who likes watching anime and tweaking his Linux setup. Current interests include search engines, security, privacy, and the IndieWeb.
My perspective on software freedom is a bit different from the FSF's; I've been trying to distance myself from "fossbro" culture.
Git repos:
Since some people asked me about music, here's a generated list of every track in my library that I've rated 8/10 or higher:
Fediverse (@Seirdy@pleroma.envs.net)
Chat with me: I prefer IRC, where my nick is Seirdy on Libera.chat, Snoonet, OFTC, Tilde.Chat, and a few smaller networks. Alternatively, I'm on Matrix:
My secondary Matrix account for Synapse-only rooms is @seirdy:fairydust.space.
Orbits (Gemini equivalent of webrings):
I don't collect anything except default server logs, purged regularly. More detail on a dedicated page:
