I develop open-source multimedia software (libplacebo, mpv, ...)
Description
Hello! I'm Niklas Haas - also known as @haasn on GitHub.
I spend most of my free time working on free software, mostly in the video/graphics ecosystems. In particular, I am a core FFmpeg contributor, as well as the maintainer of checkasm and libswscale. In particular, I also wrote the video renderer for the popular media playing program mpv, also known as libplacebo, which is also used in FFmpeg and VLC to provide high-quality GPU-accelerated rendering.
As a hobbyist, I've been working on FOSS for several years now. However, in order to continue doing this for the rest of my life, I need to make a living doing so. If you would like to help me continue living out my passion for free software, or appreciate my work on mpv/VLC/etc. and would like to support me for it, I would be very thankful to receive any contributions either way.
