Tom<p>I guess I should have an <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>introduction</span></a> on here as well:</p><p>I'm a programmer and <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/freesoftware" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FreeSoftware</span></a> enthusiast. I've been using <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> as my main desktop and <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/emacs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Emacs</span></a> as my... everything... since 2008. I started off with a lot of distro hopping, my journey took me through <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/ubuntu" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ubuntu</span></a>, <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/fedora" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Fedora</span></a>, <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/zenwalk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Zenwalk</span></a>, <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/gentoo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gentoo</span></a>, and <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/exherbo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Exherbo</span></a> before settling on <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/archlinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ArchLinux</span></a>, now with <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/guix" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Guix</span></a> on top.</p><p>I love writing software in <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/lisp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lisp</span></a> (either <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/commonlisp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CommonLisp</span></a> or <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/scheme" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Scheme</span></a> or any other), but I don't get enough of a chance to. Except <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/emacslisp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>EmacsLisp</span></a>, basically all my personal projects end up being written in that. Other than that I've enjoyed writing things in <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/csharp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CSharp</span></a>, <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/php" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PHP</span></a>, <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/python" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Python</span></a>, <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/javascript" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JavaScript</span></a>, <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/ruby" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Ruby</span></a>, <a href="https://goto.ryuslash.org/tags/groovy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Groovy</span></a>, and several other languages.</p><p>My main account is <span class="h-card"><a href="https://fosstodon.org/@ryuslash" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>ryuslash</span></a></span>, this is my account for experimenting with self-hosting.</p>
