+# Contact
-This is an example of a custom shortcode that you can put right into your content. You will need to add a form action to the the shortcode to make it work. Check out [Formspree](https://formspree.io/) for a simple, free form service.
+Normally there would be a way to contact me here. However this little problem known as spam has increased a hundredfold over the years, and I would not like this to increase (there's enough as it is). I used to use a service for a contact form, but it was not self-hosted, and I would rather not handle contact forms to a third party.
+
+This leaves us with the "dilemma". Most of the time I've been contacted through here was because some functionality on the web page was horribly broken and I had not noticed. In this case, I *want* to know if something's not working, but without receiving solicitations on health advice, loans, princes giving away their money, etc... In other words, there **should** be a way to do so.
+
+There are two, not the best, but better than nothing:
+
+- Leave a comment on the most recent blog post (I get notified of them);
+- Message me me on IRC, either directly or through services like [Matrix network](https://element.io). My nick is *einar77* and you can often find me in the `#kde-devel` channel.
+
+If I'll find something self-hostable that allows me to block spam and still allow legitimate messages to go through, I'll add it here.
