Jamie Tanna's profile image

Hi, I'm Jamie Tanna šŸ‘‹šŸ¼

If you're referring to me, I'm happy being called Jamie, Jamie Tanna, jamietanna, and that you respect my pronouns: he/him/his.

I'm currently taking a few weeks off between jobs, before I start my new job.

I currently live in Nottingham with my partner Anna Dodson and our cat Morph and our dog Cookie.

I use my site as a method of blogging about my learnings, as well as sharing information about projects I have previously, or am currently, working on in my spare time.

I'm an maintainer for a number of Open Source projects, including oapi-codegen, and will soon be a maintainer on Renovate, when I start my job at Mend later this month.

I'm a GNU/Linux user, a big advocate for the Free Software Movement, and the IndieWeb movement and I try to self host my own services where possible, instead of relying on other providers.

I have ADHD (Inattentive Type) and am learning how to make my life work better around it.

Due to the many social media platforms and different ways to connect, I've captured all my contact information on my /elsewhere page. Alternatively, you can drop me an email at hi@jamietanna.co.uk.

I also have a /now page which aims to cover some more up-to-date "what I'm up to" information.

My birthday is on the .
