I am interested in quite a lot of things, including free and ethical software (free is not always ethical!).

I came to the Ğ1 through a framasoft page (this one https://degooglisons-internet.org/fr/alternatives/ ), and so: "but what is this strange "duniter" next to paypal??". I have been fairly involved in various kinds of activism, and what I liked about duniter (compared with bitcoin, which framasoft also mentions) is this form of "automatic" solidarity written into the code, and the need to meet people. I studied biology, did not manage at the time to find something that really suited me and where I felt good (convictions, social side, creativity, etc…), then in 2011 I joined a bicycle delivery company (which gives me a lot of flexibility and more free time, and cycling was one of my passions anyway!), so I mostly deliver medical things (which is funny, because I can sometimes surprise the doctors, technicians and pharmacists I work with ,o) I like reinventing the wheel, trying to understand things in depth, I really value the notion of commons, or common goods, and I care about shared decision-making and reducing the number of hierarchies that exist. I told myself that I am average in quite a lot of the areas that interest us here, not especially good at technical stuff (I can learn code, but for now I am at rudimentary notions of bash), nor at languages (German first, but a bit hesitant, then English), and as for administrative matters, I can say I am not comfortable with them (even if I think I should learn that too).

What I thought I could bring is help with popularisation and documentation, so that more people can dive more easily into the technical aspects, even modest ones (running a mirror node, for example).
