I’m looking for anyone in my circles who:

• is a front-end web developer
• has some design sense
• understands the allure of buying a Linux computer
• is open to paid work

A Linux computer company reached out asking if I was available for paid work on their website and while I would love to, I’m just not able to find the time right now. But they’re a great company and I would love to connect them with someone!

@cassidy Hate to say I looked at that list and the first thought was "Aren't the first two bullet points mutually exclusive?".

@cassidy I'd have loved a job like this a few years ago. I started developing with Joomla while it was still in beta years ago. Love open source for the web. I still work with a few clients (hosting and maintaining/updating the sites I built for them) and ran my computer systems biz for 35 years (if you're doing the math, yes, I started out in the 8088 era). I was a Microsoft Reseller for years, but dumped them for Linux back in the day. I've run every version of Linux at some time.

@cassidy why would you want to buy a Linux computer? When people are literally giving away perfectly good computers for free (free as in beer) on which I can install Linux 😉

@cassidy "design sense" is pretty vague.

Cassidy James :gg: :fh:

@cassidy@mastodon.blaede.family replied · 2 months ago

@loganer yeah, I guess my thinking is: you don't have to be a traditional “web designer” (I would not consider myself one!), but you would be responsible for some amount of design rather than taking a prepared design and strictly turning it into a web project.

It’s definitely a bit open ended!

@cassidy You've gotten some decent looking replies and I'm a stranger to you, but just in case everyone else gets abducted by aliens, I've a small site about myself here and I could probably help them: https://www.daveyfaherty.com

Getting back on the freelancing train at a weird time. 😀

Cheers.

@kevinrns yeah, I was hoping to specifically ask around in a slightly smaller circle of people I knew before sharing more widely, but I do appreciate it. 😆
