About Me
Progressive, into all kinds of stuff; random thoughts, culture, comics, a little encryption, stationery, RPGs, virtual worlds, politics, history, linguistics…
This place is sort of my “nexus” online. The social media where I’m most active is on Mastodon. I also have several resources, over at my “home community”, Disroot, including email. Of all places, Mastodon is probably the best way to contact me initially, which also kind of works as my front page on social networks in general.
Resources
(I tend to be @sintrenton or Fox Trenton in general)
- Mastodon: @sintrenton@todon.nl
- Disroot: Community disroot.org
Communications (Instant Messaging+)
- Signal (https://signal.org)
- XMPP (yep, still. OMEMO encryption)
Matrix (matrix.org/ecosystem/clients)– Not really, nowadays, only if the above are not options.
These are generally secured and private IMs that are my preferred way of communication. If you like to get in touch that way, send me a direct message on Mastodon. Since those are not private, you can encrypt it with my OpenPGP key below, if you like.
Encryption
- OpenPGP: Encryption standard OpenPGP, GnuPG
- OpenKeychain app, Android: On F-Droid, On Google Play
My OpenPGP public key (ECC) (as txt)*
My OpenPGP public key (RSA, older standard) (as txt)*
* Text file in case you prefer to copy and paste the key instead of downloading it
If you don’t have any OpenPGP/GnuPG tools, you can use 8gwifi.org’s tool at least. Encrypting in your browser is usually not a good idea, but keep your message brief and bland, pasting in my public key in the form, and we’ll have at least that. My public key is just that, public. (You encrypt with my public key and I decrypt with my private key).
NOTE 8gwifi.org's tool does not work with the more modern ECC curves encryption. Use my older RSA public key above instead. (I default to the ECC key, but have access to/use the RSA key as well, when needed).
