David Lapshin
Greetings! Name’s David, you may also know me by my online handle; Daudix.
Uninteresting Fact
Although Daudix appears to be just my online handle, it’s actually a slightly different persona; perhaps more silly and authentic than the “official” David, but it’s fine to use whatever you like.
Originally from the Siberian part of Russia, but currently living in abyss.Some things that I like:
I try to learn something new every day, and sometimes, I come across things that I enjoy and start to dive into them.
Take design; it’s more than just something I like, it’s my hobby and I’m learning more about it every day, although lately I’ve been a bit burned out.
As you can see, I also do some web development! I like working with CSS and HTML, but that’s about it; JS is a bit of a mystery for me :D
And lastly, to quote Jeffrey: “I’m and might come across as reserved and standoffish at first, but I open up when I get more comfortable with people.”
Works
I occasionally contribute to FOSS projects, mostly around GNOME apps; creating and improving icons for them, translating them into Russian, and sometimes helping with the UI.
Have a look at my designs; mostly icons, but also some wallpapers (one of them is part of GNOME).
IndieWeb
IndieWeb is something I really like; everything from 88x31 buttons to webrings is so cozy, fun, legit and personal, feels really great after the sterile corporate web all over the place. I’m even a member of several tildes/pubnixes, even though I don’t do much there, I still like being a part of them:
I have a website on neocities; it’s a bit empty at the moment, basically it’s my playground where I can make bolder design choices than here. Check it out.
I also have a Gemini capsule on flounder. I recently changed it to serve as a place for jotting down small notes rather than being a mirror of this website. See this post for the reasons behind this decision. (you can also finger me at daudix@flounder.online)
