# Seirdy's Home It me! I'm Rohan Kumar, a.k.a.

I'm a FLOSS (Free, Libre, and Open-Source Software) enthusiast, software minimalist who likes watching anime and tweaking his Linux setup. Current interests include search engines, security, privacy, and the IndieWeb. My perspective on software freedom is a bit different from the FSF's; I've been trying to distance myself from "fossbro" culture.
