I'm happy and fortunate to be working on -- and learning more about -- things which I think matter a lot:

🗞️ enabling news organisations and campaigners to publish, connect and organise without Big Tech

🤝 nourishing non-toxic online communities and content feeds

🆓 building resilient, independent and adaptable technology for good
