About Me

Hi! 👋

I’m Kristófer Reykjlalín!

I’m a Software Engineer with a passion for digital security, privacy, and good software.

This blog will mainly be a platform to express my thoughts and experiences with technologies I’ve been exposed to in my daily life.

I hope you enjoy it!


Things I do

Projects, work, fun, etc…

Code Wrangling for Automattic

I currently work as a Code Wrangler for Automattic, the company behind WordPress.com. If you’re curious about what we do and how we do it, feel free to reach out to me!

We’re always hiring.


Creator of the PHP_CodeSniffer and Intelephense extensions for Nova

I created and maintain the PHP_CodeSniffer and Intelephense extensions for Panic’s Nova code editor. They’re updated on a semi-regular basis with feature requests or things I find useful.

The code for both extensions is all available on Sourcehut.


Inner Circle

Inner Circle is a private, self-hosted, and simple way to share updates with family and friends in the form of photos, videos, and text updates. You can think of it as some sort of mix between Facebook, Twitter/Mastodon, and Instagram, only private — you need an account to see content — and self-hosted.

I work on this whenever I have the time, but that’s unfortunately far less frequently than I’d like.


If you like any of the work I mentioned above you can buy me a cup of tea ☕️


Where can you find me?

I’m always happy to respond to any thoughts or questions!

Personally I prefer to encrypt my communications, and I encourage you to learn how to do that too!

Email is probably the best way to contact me. I check my email regularly and usually respond quickly. You can use Keyoxide as a simple way to encrypt your messages to me, but you won’t be able to receive encrypted messages from me. For that you’ll need your own public key.

Public key: 0A04 5A7C 2953 2EE9 [identity proofs]

I’m keeping all my new projects on Sourcehut, but still have some old projects hosted on GitHub.
