Welcome to TransitionTech.ca!
I started this site in 2014 as a way to share information about digital technology that is in some way more resilient, sustainable, or ethical than the corporate-owned online platforms that are the norm online. Most of my writing concerns advocacy for free/open-source software and against surveillance.
In 2015 I moved from Canada to France to work on CryptPad, and in 2018 I took over as the its lead developer. As the project gained popularity I was left with progressively less time and energy to write about these topics outside of blogging on behalf of the team, so this personal site has gotten somewhat stale.
I moved on from the CryptPad team in early 2023 to take a sabbatical period and recover from some degree of burnout due to some toxic/draining aspects of the open-source community. Part of that recovery is getting back to writing in a personal capacity.
