  Hi, I'm tyil, and this is my site. I'm a software engineer with a big
  interest in Free Software. As such, I spend much time writing and promoting
  free software. Occasionally, I'll write an article about something freedom or
  software related.

## About me
Freedom-focused hacker. I love everything about free software, and spend much
time contributing to it myself. I occasionally write articles to help other
people getting started with free software, and show the issues with proprietary
software. I'm Active on a number of IRC channels, spread over multiple IRC
networks. Currently I have made over 10 modules for Perl 6, which are all
available on CPAN. I also write a blog post on occasion, with my latest
write-up being "[{{blogpost.title}}]({{blogpost.url}})".

If you think what I'm doing is awesome, and want to support me, you can do so
through donations. More information about how to donate and what I do with the
donations I receive can be found on the [support][donate] page.

## Contact
### PGP
My public PGP key is available on on [pgp.mit.edu][pubkey]. The fingerprint
is:

```
EB9E A484 1672 2D37 16F5  A799 9ACF E193 FFBC 1F50
```

### OTR
For instant messaging I use OTR where possible. My fingerprints are the following:

- `973F92EA 4A45DE93 60C2C60E DDC049D5 149B3BE2` XMPP, tyil@national.shitposting.agency
- `B174A02B 1F0A4258 B1527988 770843B4 0582A0D8` IRC, tyil @ DareNET
- `C6025214 E05A4FB6 5E65B900 9CA6A7AF A4A35C48` IRC, tyil @ Freenode
- `80999DD8 22504629 44EC13E3 5C31BF2F FC825703` IRC, tyil @ Rizon

### Channels
####  Email
Email contact goes via [p.spek@tyil.work][mail]. Be sure to at least sign all
mail you send me. Even better would be encrypted mail using my [PGP
key][pubkey].

I do not read my mailboxes very often, so please do not expect a timely
response. If you require a response as soon as possible, please find me on IRC
instead.

#### IRC
I am mainly active as `tyil` on [Freenode][freenode]. Other networks I frequent
are [DareNET][darenet] and [Rizon][rizon], using the same nick, `tyil`. I
use OTR for private messages on IRC, so be sure you use this if you want to
discuss something in private.

#### XMPP
I am available via XMPP/Jabber on `tyil@national.shitposting.agency`. Like IRC,
be sure to have OTR enabled if you wish to talk to me. Since my XMPP chats go
via [`BitlBee`][bitlbee], the response time is about the same as via IRC.
