Hey there!

I'm Morgan, Morganamilo in most places and I'd like to apply to become a
Trusted User with dvzrv and kpcyrd's sponsorship.

I've been an avid Arch user for the past 5 or so years. I started
dipping my toes into the community with some wiki edits, bug reporting
and submitted my first AUR package back in 2017.

I also love FOSS as a whole, I contribute to random projects here and
there, participate where I can and just love the community aspect.

These days my main involvement with arch is pacman and the AUR.

I started contributing to pacman 3 years ago. Adding stricter pkgbuild
linting and fixing a bug here or there. Fast forward to now and I'm one
of the maintainers of pacman as well as maintaining the rust bindings
for libalpm.

On the AUR side I co developed yay, developed paru and also have
contributions in pretty much every current AUR helper.

So I pretty know the AUR/pacman/makepkg inside out.

Some other things I do in and around Arch are:

* I maintain a handful of AUR packages
* I'm a moderator for the r/archlinux subreddit
* I'm a (bit inactive) Bug wrangler
* I also maintain a handful of pacman/AUR oriented rust/go libraries
* I also go and bug AUR maintainers about broken pkgbuilds

I'm a big fan of rust, so a lot of the packages I wish to maintain are
rust related. A lot of it is there in the repos already So I'd be
looking to co maintain:

* rust-analyzer
* rust-bindgen
* rustup
* cargo-audit
* cargo-bloat
* cargo-edit
* bat
* ripgrep
* discord (I maintained the AUR package before it was in community)
* dolphin
* packagekit (Mostly just to help with patching it for new alpm compat)

And the packages I would like to add to community are:

* git-delta
* cargo-asm
* vim-rust (aur: vim-rust-git. has no releases, will ask upstream)
* magic-wormhole
* vim-coc
* discord-canary (technically beta software but is official
  and intended for public use)

I'm looking forward to sinking my teeth into Arch even more. It's a
great community and I've thoroughly enjoyed my time so far.
