I started using Debian from a very young age, and found it to be a great distribution and operating system in general, especially since it still supported i386 (unlike Ubuntu) and could run on literally anything. I used to run Debian on old i386 machines, but now I daily drive Debian on my laptop and on a few homelab servers.

I began to contribute to Debian because there were a lot of apps that still hadn't been packaged for Debian, even though they were popular and gaining traction. My first contribution was the adoption of the kitty package with Nilesh Patra. Now, I'm maintaining a large amount of packages across several areas and have uploaded to a few others, and I've somehow achieved this without having any rights to the archive, thanks to the many considerate DDs that have kindly sponsored my various packages :)

I'm also working on improving the DDTP, and have started working on improving Arabic localisation throughout Debian (slowly). My achievements in Debian that I'm most proud of include kitty, miniflux, gtklock, tea-cli, and the nwg-* packages for Sway. I've also helped tar with packaging dependencies for invidtui and cam2ip, and have done a bunch of work in the Rust Team as well. I've also started contributing to Lintian and am poking around dak to see what I can help with.
