Hello, everyone!

[Ritchie Frodomar]

Hello!

My name's Ritchie. I have recently joined up with the KDE e.V. as an
Accessibility Engineer, and wanted to formally introduce myself on the
mailing list.

I am 23-year-old a legally blind programmer and game developer. I taught
myself to program at the age of 10 after my diagnosis, as computers became
an extremely important part of my life. Gamedev is how I express myself
creatively, but software accessibility is extremely important to me.

I use KDE Plasma on my daily system as I find it to be the best desktop
environment to use with my vision loss. Kwin is currently the best
implementation of a screen magnifier on multiple monitors, including
compared to proprietary tools.

Some of you may have already seen me on the KDE Matrix, and on KDE Invent
working on Kwin, NeoChat, KTextEditor, and my own KCM for gaming mice. I
intend to continue that work, and to improve general accessibility across
all of KDE.

I likely won't be directly active on this mailing list, because email is
not the most accessible for me. I am however reachable on Matrix (@ritchie:
matrix.acidiclight.dev) in the KDE rooms if anyone would like to say hi.

See you guys around!
-Ritchie
