About You:
Hi everyone :-),
I'm Dennis. The first time I came across Fedora was about 12 years ago,
when a good friend of mine showed me his installation. Back then I used
Linux distributions mainly to play around with small home servers and
such, but stupid me wasn't "brave enough" to daily drive the penguin on
his main hardware. However, I fortunately took the change to migrate a
few years ago after my previous OS crashed badly and settled on Fedora
after my distro hopping phase.
I have an IT background and I'm currently employed in the sw dev / sw
testing sphere. But beyond that, I'm also passionate about creating and
repairing stuff. Which is why I co-founded a Repair-Cafe and a FabLab in
my hometown, including actively working in their management / steering
committees at the time. Although I'm quite an introvert, I really like
to talk to people about my "passion projects" (e.g. about our FabLab at
Maker Faire) and doing other non-technical tasks. Speaking of
repairability, I also like to hang around in the Framework Laptop
community, discussing tech and helping others.
You and the Fedora Project:
I enjoy working on the german translations (dnf5 at the moment), and
already have some smaller wiki gardening tasks on my personal todo list
too. :-)
But I'm concentrating on on-boarding myself to L10N, further
familiarizing with the overall project (from a contribution
perspective), and getting involved. So, let's see what the future holds.
:-)
Speaking of wiki gardening... are we still supposed to use the
self-introduction template? ;-)
Best regards,
Dennis (he/his)
