Free Software hacker by coincidence, governance, project or community manager by necessity
I have made it one of my life goals, to at some point be able to provide a family member with a Linux phone they can actually use.

Today a 14 year old wrote an email proudly explaining how they installed #postmarketOS on their Acer Chromebook, and asking if I could send some stickers to their postal address. I invited them to #FrOSCon (where they could get a lot of stickers!), since that's a family-friendly event, and otherwise said I would try. They replied very happy to get a reply from a pmOS maintainer, and "see you in Sankt Augustin".
I'm just so happy I made the day of this kid :D
@unfinishedsymphony has recently stepped up helping with issues related to postmarketOS docs (huge thanks!). And one of the things we had pending was fixing the ugly banner to go back to the index, for example in https://docs.postmarketos.org/policies-and-processes/governance.html. I as the maintainer have very little UI and UX knowledge. If anybody here would like to suggest improvements there, or directly comment in the code in https://gitlab.postmarketos.org/postmarketOS/docs.postmarketos.org/-/merge_requests/63 that would be super welcomed!

Open Source Gave Me Everything Until I Had Nothing Left to Give - Kenneth Reitz
I was at a tech conference in Sweden when it started. I hadn’t slept in days. I was one of the most prolific open source developers in the Python ecosystem, maintaining the most downloaded HTTP library on Earth, keynoting conferences across the world, and I was losing my mind in a hotel room six thousand miles from home.

Gosh I've been installing MS Edge all these years literally just for this one single feature because Papers didn't have it

New blog post introducing the WIP Duranium project (immutable postmarketOS), some of its major features, and explaining why some design decisions were made. 
> Either the new image works, or the system falls back to the previous one automatically. No partially-applied state. No debugging audio when you need to make a phone call and no fussing with a broken web browser when you just want to doomscroll cat photos. It also means developers can reproduce the exact state of a user's device, making it much easier to track down and fix issues.

going to spend some time in a mostly advisory role helping alpine rebuild the TSC and security team.
as always, everything on my account is just my *personal opinion*. my *personal opinions* on this matter are as follows:
in general, i am at a point in my life where i just want stability and reliability from alpine, but otherwise i want to focus on new stuff. plus, the new kids are alright, you know?
my goal is to get both of these functions working to a point where i don't have to worry about them ever again.
