Become a sponsor to Jon Parise

Hello! I'm Jon.

I started writing free software when I was a teenager. Those first projects were BBS-related and are archived on GitHub for posterity (teleport, tgbackup, tgprot). I've been writing open source software ever since.

I'm a firm believer in continuous improvement and fixing problems at their source. I frequently contribute bug fixes and improvements to upstream projects in the course of my own work.

Your sponsorship helps me spend more time supporting my personal projects as well as contributing elsewhere throughout the open source ecosystem.

Thank you for your support! 💞
