Become a sponsor to Alyssa Ross

Hi! I work on Spectrum — a compartmentalized operating system; Nixpkgs; and various related things. I have a strong upstream-first development philosophy, so I'll often end up working on various other projects used by Spectrum too — Cloud Hypervisor, crosvm, (in future) COSMIC, and so on.

I'm trying to start doing programming streams regularly on https://live.qyliss.net/, which should make it easier to keep up with and learn about the work I'm doing.

Donations through GitHub Sponsors and Liberapay are most of my income, so support from people following my work is critical to enabling me to keep doing it.
