Hello! If you're here and considering a sponsorship, I truly appreciate it! This funding enables me to put time towards my open-source contributions for projects like Iceshrimp and nixpkgs, as well as my own projects, like CreatorPay!
I'm a college student, going for a degree in Cybersecurity. I got interested in open source back in high school, where my teachers instilled in me a passion for learning by doing. I aim to keep doing that, working on my own projects and contributing to open source, making a difference in the world 1 line of code at a time.
Current Projects
- Iceshrimp
- YAMF (Yet another Misskey fork) bringing you no-nonsense fixes, features & improvements you actually want since 2023. Open source social networking for anyone, hostable by anyone, anywhere!
- Contributing to nixpkgs
- I help keep nixpkgs, the world's largest software repo, up-to-date, as well as adding more packages that I use.
- CreatorPay, mirrored to Github here
- An Open Source alternative to Patreon, aiming to bring its core features to a larger audience with a simpler UI, better API, and in a more private way. Currently in pre-alpha, contributors are welcome!
How will I use your funds?
Your funds will be used to pay for CreatorPay servers, as well as supporting me being able to live here. I aim to spend the money as wisely as possible, and it will be reserved first and foremost for making sure my projects are successful here.
This will give me a solid financial base to be able to work on scaling and marketing CreatorPay. At this point, I'd expect to have finished the main project, and have begun work on the main site, if that's not launched already. This money would go towards hosting costs for CreatorPay, as well as ensuring I can dedicate time and effort to improving it.
