Hi there!
I’m Max, an autistic software engineer, Twitch streamer (affiliate since 13th July 2019), and hobby collector from the North of England (and big fan of the Oxford comma).
I go by he / they, occasionally feeling pretty strongly non-binary, and identify as bi. That part’s a little muddy; I’m definitely biromantic, but likely somewhere in the ace spectrum. If you don’t support the entire LGBTQ+ community (including the T), then I can guarantee I want nothing to do with you. :)
I’m very enthusiastic about self-hosting most of the online services I use these days on low-power Linux devices, and an enthusiast for the day when I can finally move over to Linux as a daily-driver (as always, software support holds me back). I also work on a bunch of open-source projects.
Hobbies include, but are not limited to: playing video games; making the occasional video game (using frameworks, not engines); writing niche software; listening to a very wide variety of music; learning about stuff (an awful lot, but linguistics and computer science are particularly trivial nerd-snipes); learning languages (primarily Classical Latin and some Ancient Greek); and occasionally learning an instrument (violin / guitar). Feel free to talk to me about any of these!
I’m pretty easy to contact through the myriad ways indicated at the top of this page; if in doubt, feel free to shoot me a DM on the Fediverse or email if need be. :)
