Hello, middle-aged, neurodivergent, dog servant looking for his 'Internet People', my bio tells you a bit more about me, and as I've given up the idea of a blog in favour of conversation, it's probably best if you just ask me 'stuff'. Meanwhile, here's some tags to prompt interest:

My fediverse home since 2018 is closing in 10 days. So I'm moving into this neighbourhood!

I'm a civil servant working in web accessibility. I love baking, cycling, nature, afternoon naps.

I read Discworld novels every night before I go to bed. Chronological order, this time. Now reading The Truth.

1977 - on sax 🤘

Hi all - this is a new account just for my comparative mythology project on the Celtic-Christian Saints, which I've previously been sharing over on @seachaint 'til now.

"The Gods and Their Croziers" is my current passion - applying a comparative mythology model inherited from others such as "Taliesin's Map", I've been able to identify some key clusters of Gaelic and British saints who are, in fact, entirely Gods rewritten as Saints.

Indeed, almost every saint prior to 650CE (possibly later) appears to be a fictional re-writing of a Celtic mythological character. Even more interestingly, their names and locations of worship seem to frequently, perhaps usually, correspond to native epithets and associated sites.

I'm currently publishing dossiers on the God-Saints the day before their feast-days according to the Christian calendars. I try to include in each issue enough information to understand the connection, to get an idea of the function of the deity in context, and some information on names, places, animals/plants, and other dates or events that might be relevant to the god.

Anyone into #Celtic or #Irish #Paganism or #Mythology ought to enjoy this work - some of Ireland's "missing" gods are _only_ recorded clearly as Saints, having never been written as native mythology (or only in highly fragmentary, coded form). But, with the "Key" from the Saints, we can unpack mythology that's remained obscure until now.

I hope ye'll join me in exploring this whole new frontier of Irish mythological exploration.

Hello! I'm Hong Minhee (洪 民憙), an open source software engineer in my late 30s, living in Seoul, Korea. I'm bisexual and non-binary (they/them), and an enthusiastic advocate of free/open source software and the fediverse.

I work full-time on @fedify, an ActivityPub server framework in TypeScript, funded by @sovtechfund. I'm also the creator of @hollo, a single-user ActivityPub microblog; @botkit, an ActivityPub bot framework; Hackers' Pub, a fediverse platform for software developers; and LogTape, a logging library for JavaScript and TypeScript.

I have a long interest in East Asian languages (CJK) and Unicode. I post mostly in English here, though occasionally in Japanese or in mixed-script Korean (國漢文混用體), a traditional writing style that interleaves Chinese characters with the native Korean alphabet. Wanting to write in that style was actually one of the reasons I joined the fediverse. Feel free to talk to me in English, Korean, Japanese, or even Literary Chinese!

#introduction

#introduction Hi Fedi!

I'm a student in #CompSci and #Philosophy (https://www.philocomp.net) at the University of #Oxford. Busy University life will make me unresponsive sometimes.

I'm a #FreeSoftware #OpenSource promoter (co-running https://ox.ogeer.org/) and developer (https://ogeer.org/#code-forges). I would love to increase confidence and become a long-term contributor to communities' projects.

I'm a beginner but interested in #governance - social.coop is an example.

I also enjoy #etymology and language-learning (message me in ES or ZH_Hans), considering and protecting our natural #environment, and music.

I love creative, diverse methods of human expression and existence. I shun prejudice, and try to widen my perspectives. I am learning robust analytical arguments via Philosophy. Respectful, critical argument with me is welcome, but if it requires triggering topics, or could tire some, please put it behind a content warning. I will try to do the same.

Posting in the Fediverse since last week: @uksolarphysics! 🇬🇧 ☀️

The UK Solar Physics community (UKSP) is a Specialist Scientific Group affiliated to the Royal Astronomical Society. They regularly provide relevant news and nuggets both to their members as well as the international solar physics community at large via https://uksolphys.org/

If you're interested in the research of the Sun, our closest star, at all, consider following them for their announcements either at https://uksolphys.org/news/recent-news-summary/, or via their UKSP newsletter (mailing list), or now directly here via their Mastodon account @uksolarphysics

Maybe don't expect them to interact a lot, but if you *are* here for their very useful announcements, it is now really easy to follow and also boost those. So, a warm welcome to @uksolarphysics 🌞

Hi. This blog mostly features my adorable cats, Joey and Sheena. Thank you for occasionally indulging me when I post non-feline things.

I just published my novel, Water Dogs. It's the best book about midwestern teens from the 1970s discovering punk rock and saving the universe that I've ever written. Please buy lots of copies from Barnes & Noble (or Amazon).

Heya, I'm Zak! An absolute nerd, casual gamer & tech-lover. Aside from these hobbies, I'm also a writer & musician, as well, I take LOTS of photos.

Here to have fun & chill, keeping things light-hearted. As my life has been improving, I'm hoping to meet more cool people from fedi & just vibe.

Nice to meet you!

#Introduction time!

My name is Thomas, but some folks call me Gull. I'm in my late thirties, and I exist in the #Vancouver area. I was born and raised here in #Canada . I'm somewhat of an introvert and minimalist. I avoid people and things, but don't worry, I'm friendly!

I post nice photos or random thoughts. I avoid doomposting or doomboosting. This is my second account, by the way.

Here are some relevant interests! #Birding #Hiking #Photography #Cooking #CraftBeer #RhythmGaming .

This is my official Mastodon going forward. I'll no longer be using any other profiles/accounts as I'll be focused on creating content that brings me true queer/trans joy finally.

I also create, discuss, write, film and do things that is INTENDED TO MAKE YOU UNCOMFORTABLE. So sit back, relax (if you can - it's not guaranteed since it's going to hurt) and enjoy the journey.

#introduction

Hello Mastodon ! Je suis nouveau sur Mastodon. Je suis ingénieur informatique et chercheur en recherche opérationnelle. Je suis (grand) partisan d'#openSource et #scienceOuverte. Je m'intéresse à de nombreux sujets mais surtout #durabilité #vieprivee #lowtech #epistemologie.

Je suis un peu un fan de #typesetting (composition d'après Wikipédia) donc j'utilise #LaTeX (ou #TeX), et #Typst. Je suis responsable de deux paquets Typst: glossarium et algorithmique.

J'ai du temps libre avant le début de mon prochain travail, donc je parcours lentement ma pile de projets personnels...

Au plaisir de rencontrer des gens ici!

#introduction

Hi Mastodon! I'm Pascal and new to Mastodon. I'm a computer engineer and a researcher in operations research. I'm a (fairly) strong advocate for #openSource and #openScience. I'm interested in many topics but mostly #sustainability #privacy #lowtech #epistemology.

I'm a bit of a #typesetting nerd, so I use #LaTeX (or #TeX), and #Typst. I maintain two Typst packages: glossarium and algorithmic.

I have some free time before my next work contract starts, so I have been slowly going through my personal projects backlog...

Looking forward to meet people here!

#NewHere here at CoSocial, but not to Mastodon and figured I’m due for an #introduction.

I mostly lurk and boost things I find interesting but not a huge poster. I’ll try to be a bit more active but no promises 😄.

Into tech, random problem-solving, and going down the occasional rabbit hole (soooo much time spent/wasted on new wifi gear and smart home most recently). I work in biotech, but mostly here to unwind and see what other people are up to.

should prolly do a #reintroduction #introduction bc life changes & so does the content on my mastodon account. im the disabled white tgirl ur mom told horror stories to u abt (bc i told her to do one after she yelled a slur at me on the street 🥰).

this acc is part boosting other ppl's voices, part mutual aid, part venting abt men & yt ppl, part informing abt transfeminism, part sw, and i think sometimes i bark? but that doesn't mean i wont bite ur arm off if u get touchy w me in dms 😘

my ✨ vibe ✨ is hardcore lesbian horrorcore erotica where a girl w a nuclear, fractured soul coos affirmations to me while digging my grave (im so far removed from tenderqueer bb xxx).

if u havent ever donated money to a trans woman, u prolly should be following me to learn why u should.

#introduction time!

Hi hello. I'm Moxie. You may know me already, because I've been here before. I'm an overly nostalgic Millennial who just can't give up on social media, despite my best efforts.

I'm a Māori New Zealander living in the Netherlands with my (also Kiwi) husband Sam, and our two dogs Moose & Caribou. I am disabled (by chronic illness & ADHD) and underemployed, so I spend a lot of time in these parts.

I love the feeling of running my fingers across a keyboard at speed which also means I like to code & write. I'm better at the former, but mediocre at both. I am still happy to share with the world though! You can find me at moxiemoshpit.com and madmadammoxie.me.

I care about everything and tend to yap about it. My most popular topics? People (I'm a psychology graduate), politics, music, and whatever else is currently holding my attention.

hello world! I'm a #queer programmer living the #cyberpunk life in berlin.

I spend my time with #linux, #math and #rust, which often leaks into #elitedangerous and #satisfactory.

when I'm not at the keyboard, I'm reading, playing #dnd or watching #startrek.

most of my soundtrack is #metal, except when it's #eurovision.

#trans rights are human rights. if you have a problem with this, just fuck off please.

and society still is all about class struggle. #workersunite!

that's my #introduction

Hi! I'm Manoela Costa and I'm a visual artist based in Brazil. I create comics and illustrations for books and games. I love painting mermaids, fairies and nature, and my favorite thing to do to relax is reading a good fantasy novel with a nice cup of tea. <3

#introduction #art #artist #newhere

Hello fediverse, here's my little #introduction.

I'm a Paris-based PhD fellow conducting a research on experimental film and glitch art/live coding collectives.

I'm just discovering the entire FLOSS culture & would be happy to connect and exchange with fellow artivists from the community.

I'm also working as a freelance film programmer for Collectif Jeune Cinéma and Festival des cinémas différents et expérimentaux.

Currently looking into FLOSS related IRL meet-ups in Paris !

Had the spiritual equivalent to watching a gas tanker Tokyo drift by my home and miss it by .3 millimeters when Tumblr tried to shoot it's own dick off with the recent reblog fiasco. I am new and scared ok send post

I know just enough mathematics to be dangerous – I formalized models of type systems as a grad student – but I like cute chalk mascots and thoughtful server rules, so hello!

Professional interests: building reliable distributed systems; making legacy-horror DSLs spec-ful and debuggable

Personal interests: choral singing, photography, poetry and vaguely gothic fiction, tinkering with formalisms

Nutrition facts: none, my content will not sustain you
Contains: queer and trans pride
May contain: lolwut

Follow requests are welcome, especially if we’ve interacted before.

Hello I'm from Tumblr, and I'm scared. I'm interested in art, teratophilia, over-analysis of blorbos, and dragons. I'm still figuring out this fediverse stuff.

Hello I'm from Tumblr, and I'm scared. I'm interested in art, teratophilia, over-analysis of blorbos, and dragons. I'm still figuring out this fediverse stuff.

New instance, new introduction.

I'm Alex, formerly on mindly.social for a number of years. I've been leaning more heavily into my agender identity, and so I felt lgbtqia.space was a better home, while still having the friendly aspects that I admired in mindly.social.

Please check out my bio for a comprehensive list of interests and causes.

#Introduction

I am glad to be back! I’m Joe Henzi, co-founder of The Henzi Foundation, and I am finally getting re-established here in the Fediverse. My work is centered on supporting families during their most difficult moments by providing direct financial relief for the funeral and final expenses of a lost child.

We operate as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit where 100% of every donation goes directly to the families in need because my family personally covers all of the foundation's overhead. You can find out more about our mission and how we are working to ease the burden of the "cost of dying" at https://henzi.org.

Outside of the foundation, I’m still a huge advocate for the independent web and owning your own data. I'm looking forward to catching up with the community and seeing what's new.

Journey with self hosting for personal blog and fediverse

@selfhosted

Hello, I followed the "selfhosted" instance on LemmyWorld in order to be able to talk about my experiences having them in order, without confusing criteria into Fediverse. Hoping they can be useful to others.

Current setup: Hostinger vps kvm2 plan, Debian12, YunoHost, Hostinger's docker manager installed.

Personal background: blind since birth, (I don't see), I'm mostly a computer power-user, worked and studied with ms-dos since 1989 until late 90s. Basic GNU/Linux knowledge in 2002, then interrupted in 2004.

I don't care talking about disability when discussing unrelated topics but it's necessary in this case as my needs are quite different from others.

So, I've been scared by self-hosting and have had shared hosting web sites until now. Until @_elena started self hosting her digital echosystem from scratch using YunoHost.

Due to lack of drivers I stopped with Linux on my private machine, drivers for the Braille display I had, and then the uneffective (at least for my need) screen reader capabilities on Linux's GUI based distros.

Finally in January 2026 I jumped in the dark after reading Elena Rossini's blog about YunoHost and having explored their demo pages. At the worst, I'll cancel the contract...

In the end I've managed to run WriteFreely, WordPress, CastoPod and GoToSocial, just by YunoHost; but if someone says terminal knowledge is not needed, this is a complete lie.

Where a system (such as YunoHost) can do the dirty work configuring postfix and nginx, I'll support it but it has its disadvantages: not every app can be installed through it.

For me it's very difficult to create and look after a config file on my own, it's frustrating for a sighted to miss a punctuation sign, an apostrophe, an indent. Let alone for me! A single space skipped, can crash a system.

A lie even saying that AI completely helps. It does solve some small, simple, immediate tasks but it has some mistakes as well. The so-called allucinations which create a real mess if you can rely on no personal skill.

Such as "sudo yunohost tools cert-install", or similar. AI wrote "cert-install" while the real command is "cert install"! A power user can get rid of it and correct, a beginner with no command-line knowledge, just copies, pastes, and gets scared.

My late attempt has been Madblog, a static markdown-based blogging platform with Fediverse activitypub in it, so I learned what Docker is and how it basically works. But I gave up, due to several timeouts and activitypub slow-downs. I think I'm going to use WordPress for blogging then. In case of comments it'll be more intuitive for non-fediverse folks.

Hopefully share others' experiences as well!

Re-introduction: (Account since May 2023)

Excessive doomscrolling during current world events was doing me no good, so I quietly zeroed-out this account (not the first time).

Previously I didn’t post or engage a lot, but I’ve really missed following some good accounts, Hence I have come crawling back… again 🤷‍♂️

Please be patient if I have followed, then unfollowed, then re-followed you; it is definitely a "me" problem.

Let's see if I can use the platform better this time!

Well, new instance so a new #introduction is in order.

Hi, I’m Daniel. I grew up in London (England), and a series of fortunate circumstances brought me to Montreal. My day job is in software engineering (mainly DevOps these days).

My profile has more information about the kind of content I tend to post, but certainly I’ve felt at home on Mastodon since I joined back in 2017, and I’m happy to be here on CoSocial!

This feels like a new start, so here we go!

Hi, I'm Megan, mid-40s woman in tech. I've got plenty of hobbies, a few of them are in the hashtags.
Newly diagnosed as being neurodivergent (AuDHD). Looking to make friends and prefer to use Mastodon for the things I love.

I'm into slow fashion, human rights, crafting, cats, music, and cult horror and sci-fi movies. My latest obsession is with snails.

#knitting #crochet #linocut #sewing #gaming #snail #braindump #introduction

Hi, all! Returning to Mastodon after spending the start of this year detoxing from as much of social media.

Some of my favorite things are music (eclectic taste branching from rock, rap, and electronic), niche video games (an example would be me recently being interested in Forbidden Siren for the PS2), thrifting, philosophy, psychology, and writing.

I enjoy all of these things while also being visibly trans and queer (I identify as agender), so that makes finding people to talk about these things in person with more difficult/anxiety-inducing.

And so I'm trying to do it that way again where I have a social media account about it. #introduction #LGBTQ

Am I supposed to introduce myself and #introduction ?..I confess I have never known how to use the social internet properly and the Fediverse confuses me a bit, but I feel strongly in the need to carve out alternative social spaces on the Internet. So excuse any social faux pas on my part. I am an educator and musician in New Zealand with a passion for writing complaint letters, bringing the social sciences into everything and dreaming of a world where we radically take care of each other.

Another re-introduction, this time after a brief hiatus.
I'm Daria, I've been on fedi since few years already. Had self-hosted instances, was on multiple smaller and bigger Mastodon servers, and now I'm back at .art.
I work in IT (mostly fullstack webdev stuff).
I'm into photography, glitch art, music. I was a music blogger/journalist for a few years, still have pretty eclectic LP/CD/digital collection and love to discover new music. I live in Poland.

Hello everyone at #CoSocial (and beyond)! Time for an #introduction as we’ve migrated here.

We're a cycling advocacy group in Waterloo Region, Ontario.

In addition to our advocacy work, we're proud to have worked on the initial release of the @CyclingGuide mobile app to get it working for Waterloo people.

We're in the Fediverse to let our community know what we're up to, but also to connect with like-minded groups elsewhere!

Hii people of Fedi!

I'm a CS student doing programming language development (type theory in particular), assisted theorem proving and computer art as hobbies :)
I'm also interested in kernel developement, game developement, emulation, audio synthesis, and embedded systems. Generally, everything that involves programming cool stuff :3

My current plan in life is to work for a few years in the most interesting and morally good job I can find, then try to get a doctorate in type theory.

I mainly plan to post type theory, albeit at a beginner level, as well as rants about the jankiness of current computing. There is a big gap between what I feel a computer _should_ be and what it currently is, and I spend quite a lot of time thinking about how to shrink it.
If I ever manage to gather the courage, I'll post some art too.

I'm new not only to fedi but to profile-based social media in general - as opposed to forum-based. Please, tell me if I ever make any typo or grammatical mistake. I'm pretty shy online, even socially anxious, but I'd like to use this platform to affirm myself more. I'll be posting some bad art and bad takes, and that's gonna be fine... (probably..?)

I'm pleased to meet you all!

Oookay so this is a cool place. Wafrn, huh? Explain to me why this is never brought up when I'm looking for a Fediverse service with a really strong AI policy to reccommend to people? Bc if I can follow peeps from Mastodon and the like from here, fuck you, take my money!

Hi this is Cookie! I have worked as a technician in various art studios and #makerspaces for the past ten years. For longer than that I have made art and music. I have also done a lot of work in #ArtEducation including performative workshops. I run an Open Source #ComputerClub at u of toronto.

Currently I am working on a #webart project called “Exodus Big Techius: Root to leaving Google/Apple/Microsoft for the Collective Open Source”. My other current focus is prepping for #OHS2026 where I will be exhibiting a sound #sculpture and a new art book.

For fun, I'm very into #knitting and am a member of the local spinner and weavers guild. I love hiking and native pollinator gardening. I am planning to learn #bikepacking and the bass clarinet this summer. I love anachronisms, synchronicities, and #esoterica. I wonder about becoming a shepherd or lighthouse keeper.

Here's a photo of something swampy I knit that I feel speaks to my personality :)

Guess I need a new #introduction since I had to move from med-mastodon. I have been an IT Manager for most of my adult life and went back to college as an older student to earn my degree in #PublicHealth and #Psychology (Summa Cum Laude... who knew?).

I have volunteered at Covid vaccine clinics and for the National Park Service. I had often worked in negative-pressure rooms, treating covid patients.

I used to work as a #CNA, #OfficeManager at a PCP, and #ITManager (weird combo, I know), and am now in #PAschool.

Wish me luck!

"I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve"… or something.

Hello, or hello again—if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything nice.

If you think you know me by another name… I cannot argue with that… not even a little bit.

New here, and by that I mean that this is a brand new instance.

Single user GoToSocial instance, self-hosted on my own hardware; this is not my first.  It's just like that scene from the Matrix with the Architect: we just keep torching it and starting over, and we're starting to get pretty damned good at torching it.

I've had a WriteFreely instance before, and I think I might have another one here in the near future, honestly.

GED in 2011 at 17; no qualifications otherwise, at least literally on paper.

No human children; cat dad, though.

NixOS diehard on desktop/server.  The host machine for the VM for this server, as well as the VM itself, both run NixOS and always will.  Currently using Niri on the host machine and loving it.  GrapheneOS diehard on mobile.

Love projects, especially the kind that are never finished because they're never supposed to be.

Grew up in Oregon and moved to New Mexico with my family when they did.

I ride a unicycle.  Trying to learn violin.  These things don't necessarily have anything to do with each other, I hope.

ADHD and Tourette Syndrome, both professionally diagnosed for the first time when I was 20-something.

My dad passed away last October.

I also love philosophy btw but don't have much time for it lately bc of working but love talking about it :)<3 #introduction

#introduction

🇫🇷 Mastodon est ma première expérience de réseau social. Je n'y cherchais rien de spécial et j'y ai trouvé en presque deux ans de présence, quelques belles personnes avec qui échanger et partager.

Un mot sur le MSM accolé à mon prénom. Cela n'a rien de sexuel, il s'agit simplement de l'abréviation télégraphique de la gare proche de mon domicile et du dépôt dans lequel j'ai terminé ma carrière. Chaque gare belge, ou presque en possède un. La première lettre le M fait référence à l'ancienne compagnie ferroviaire du XIXe siècle Grand Central Belge et les deux suivantes symbolisent Saint-Mard. La gare aujourd'hui s'appelle Virton mais elle est physiquement sur l'ancienne commune de Saint-Mard. Elle a longtemps porté le nom de Virton-Saint-Mard. Si vous souhaitez en savoir plus sur les codes télégraphiques : https://nmbs.adlibhosting.com/Content/GetContent?command=getcontent&server=pdf&value=Bibliotheek/PDF/2017/201704/K568007.pdf

Pour le reste, je suis un jeune retraité des chemins de fer et mes hobbies sont :

* les chemins de fer (leur histoire, la technique, ...) et autres véhicules sur rail
* la randonnée
* la photographie amateur
* le dessin et créer des bandes dessinées
* la lecture
* la philosophie et les religions
* la nature
* les sciences et l'astronomie

Voilà pour l'essentiel car e suis curieux de tout!

Je fais partie du spectre LGBTQIA+ et me situe plus vers le A que vers le G.

Poissons, de signe astrologique, je coche quasi toutes les cases (les bonnes, comme les mauvaises).

J'aime la courtoisie, le respect, l'échange constructif, celles et ceux qui respectent et prennent soin de la nature.

Je n'aime pas l'arrogance, l'irrespect, le manque d'empathie et celles/ceux qui jettent leurs crasses dans la nature!

Ici principalement pour partager des photos de randonnées, de nature, de trains, de visites culturelles ou autres, pour me distraire et pour montrer et voir que malgré toute la laideur de notre société actuelle, il y a aussi beaucoup de belles choses.

Je ne parle pas de politique et filtre et à la limite bloque sur ces sujets car le combat, à mes yeux, se fait dans le monde réel et pas à coup d'indignation sur les réseaux sociaux.

Si votre compte ne comporte que des messages sur la thématique politique, il y a peu de chance que j'accepte votre requête d'abonnement. La même chose vaut pour les profils vides et je bloque systématiquement les bots qui boostent des messages.

Je suis ouvert à toutes et tous tant que ça reste respectueux. Je préfère une petite communauté où il y a de vrais échanges qu'une masse d'abonnés avec qui il ne se passe rien.

Merci à vous qui me suivez et qui interagissez, cela compte pour moi!

Trying out the fediverse for the first time today. I've been reading a lot about it, now it's time to figure out how it works and build an internet home here.

My goal is to figure out how I can bring https://gobikecamping.com/ into the fediverse and help people who love bike touring own their data and escape the metaverse.

I'm a 30something applied computer science student with a focus in web development and #Linux. I wanted to create this instance primarily so I'd have a social media presence without having to, yknow, sell my data or put up with bigoted admins.

I'm also #Pagan, specifically of the #Hellenic variety. I work primarily with #Hermes, but also #Apollon and #Aphrodite.

#introduction

Hi! i'm Grusha :)
I'm a doll, artist and musician and live in Tromsø, Norway, above the arctic circle.
I am at the moment mostly working as a DJ & musician inspired by all sounds in and coming from club culture. Nerdy about Sound Systems, all kinds of electronic music and also conceptual art. I am also a visual artist, something I want to get back to sometime soon.. I also love philosophy btw but don't have much time for it lately bc of working but love talking about it :)<3 #introduction

#Introduction: I work in tech, where it's critical to maintain a milquetoast persona demonstrating unbridled enthusiasm for whatever we're supposed to be excited about now—be it Rust, autonomous AI agents, or the latest framework for not learning CSS. Not a fan of the tech industry, but I really like my job, so I'm staying anonymous to create professional space. Interested in the Fediverse, infosec, consumer privacy, API design, psychology, music, art, literature, philosophy, and humor.

Hello! I’ve just moved over here, but have been on Mastodon since the great Twitter migration of 2022. I’m looking forward to reading or interacting with all of your posts from my new vantage point here at TheCanadian.Social. 😁 #introduction

Instance-moving #Introduction: I'm Mike Geiger, from Canada's Capital. I own a small ISP that's now over 21 years old... I'm happy to connect with all sorts, however I likely won't follow-back unless we've interacted, so don't be afraid to say hi!

#introduction Hello, I'm Henrietta and I'm a boat. More precisely, a Nordic Folkboat. Designed by a Swedish committee, built by a Finnish boatyard. I live in Helsinki and I like to swim in the Gulf of Finland. I came here to post bad jokes and share experiences and imaginings from a wooden boat's perspective. First of all, I want to acknowledge that wood belongs primarily in the forest, just like wolves, elk, and flying squirrels. However, moderate and considered cutting of trees may sometimes be just fine, because wood can then continue its life as a boat. In contrast, there is no reason to cut down a wolf, elk, or flying squirrel, since there are no wolf-, elk-, or flying squirrel-boats. #woodenboat #sailing #boating #sea

I have moved to this instance as dark clouds loomed over the last one, and I’m all out of umbrellas. I think I’ll like the weather here. Posts will delete after 30 days. Like life, they are ephemeral.

I tell stories through fiction, poetry, and photography.

#Introduction

For those of you needing an #introduction; yes, I moved instances. I'm now on The Canadian Social.

Previous toots dating back to March 2026 can be found at @IanAMartin@mstdn.ca, toots dating back to August 07, 2022 can be found at @IanAMartin@mastodon.social, or for anything posted on a Mastodon instance dating to April 27, 2022 you can peruse @IanAMartin@mastodon.online.

You now have been warned and have no justification for complaining.

Hello hello! My name is Gosha, it’s nice to meet you all.

I live in London with my lovely partner and our two kids, but I grew up on the internet, building fan sites on Geocities and the like. I have a homepage at https://gosha.net where you can find out more about me.

I work in software engineering (these days I’m into Clojure and Haskell), and I’m interested in photography, drawing, parenting, and in trying to live and do things well & intentionally.

Glad to be here!

Hi! 👋 The CyberRiskLab at #Uppsala University is on Mastodon now! #introduction

The lab is a space for collaborative learning about #cybersecurity. We make abstract cyber risks more tangible in workshops, seminars, and games. We encourage active participation to raise awareness and foster resilience. We value the creative exchange with people of different ages and backgrounds.

We are open every Tuesday + Thursday from 11:00 to 12:00, plus announced activities.

https://www.uu.se/en/department/information-technology/research/cybersecurity/cyberrisklab

So, new instance, new #introduction.

Hello, everyone! I am Cifer. I've been around in the #ttrpg world for... technically two thirds of my life now, I guess. Started with #DasSchwarzeAuge, then went over to #WorldOfDarkness and finally #PbtA, plus lots of other systems.

In my day job, I translate video games (EN->DE), my highest profile credits being #StarWarsOutlaws and #Pentiment.

I'm here to talk about games and game design, discuss politics and fawn over art.

Non niin. Aikaisemmin olin niin käsi fediversen kanssa että laitoin tilit mastodon.socialiin. Eihän se 500 merkin raja riitä mihinkään Suomen kielen kanssa! Semmoiset yleiset sanat kuin "kolmivaihdevaihtovirtakilovattituntimittari" syö kaiken tilan! Joten jos joku seuraili aijemmin ja ihmettelee minne hävisin niin täällä nyt tuuttaillaan mementomorin.social kautta.

Olen Joensuulainen Vasemmisto aktiivi. Korkeasti koulutettu humanisti josta tuli onnellinen duunari...toistaiseksi ainakin.

Pääosin tämän kautta ajattelin tuuttailla politiikkaa tai yhteiskunnallisia asioita. Kai sitä tulee joskus kevenneltyäkin ja jaettua muutakin. Varsinkin jos kerran omistaa ison karvaisen koiran joka syö liikaa ja yrittää joka kevät tuhota puutarhaa niin silloin kai se lukee jo säännöissä että koirakuvia on PAKKO jakaa

Maailman ja kotimaan meno hirvittää:

kansainvälilnen politiikka - suurvallat sekoilee!

Suomen politiikka - oikeistotaloususkovaiset sekoilee!

Ympäristö - kapitalistit kaataa ja tappaa kaiken!

Internet - tekoälyt ja techbro tyypit sekoilee!

Mutta apatiaan en alistu! Uskon vahvasti sanontaan:
"Tuhon aikaan täytyy luoda jotakin" Tiedän että Vasemmistolla on vaihtoehto. Tiedän myös että hyvin suuri osa meistä alkaa ajatella samoin. Entä jos kokeiltaisiin jotain muuta välissä? #Vasemmisto

Alan olla sen verran vanha milleniaali että muistan kun kaupallinen some oli vielä hyvä....tai oikeammin sanottuna ei vielä niin paska. Niinpä fediversessä näen sosiaalisen viestinnän järkevän tulevaisuuden ja vaihtoehdon. Kotona pyöriin linux mint koneet ja uusin windows minkä olen asentanut on XP retropeli koneeseen. Puhelimena Fairphone mistä google sai kenkää ja äkkiä! #fuckbigtech #fairphone #e_OS

Inhoa generatiivista tekoälyä! Analyyttinen tekoäly voi oikeasti toimia tehokkaana työkaluna. Mutta jätetään luominen, ajattelu ja taide IHMISILLE ja IHMISTEN työlle! #fuckai #fuckgenai

Tämmöisä. Morjensta kaikille. Kaikkea mitä kirjoitan saa ja tuleekin kommentoida ja kyseenalaistaa. En ole edes oman elämäni messias. Ainoastaan vähän lukihäröinen joka haluaa parantaa asioita.

Hi,

I'm Nemin, a programmer from Hungary. I first became interested in coding at around age eight, when my late grandfather lent me his Enterprise 128k and a wonderful little book, that taught BASIC in a way even kids could easily grasp.

I work at a multinational as a Full-Stack Engineer (#python / #typescript).

Off-work I'm interested in #scheme, the #IndieWeb, and #Oddworld a niche series from the '90. When I'm not bashing keys, I enjoy #cycling a lot.

haiiii im alastor (or styx or martyna, if you wanna mix things up). im most active on my tumblr blog, but im checking wafrn out so ill have somewhere to go once that site becomes completely unusable :]
my main interests right now are ultrakill and transformers. im also very fond of homestuck, madoka magica, revolutionary girl utena, ace attorney, pathologic, disco elysium, 17776, and other things which may come up from time to time. i live for machines, blood, and yuri
you can also find me on neocities! (be warned! flashing lights)

hi! my name is annabel, my pronouns are she/they. i'm here from tumblr, where my username is tanyafreemont (or perhaps lesbiansamtyler depending on where you know me from). you might know me for my skullify browser extension, which covers tumblr in skulls (skullify for wafrn when…?).

i thought i'd join wafrn because even though i've been on tumblr long enough to see it live through many "death knolls", it's nice to have a change of pace on another platform and wafrn seems really cool. i was on cohost before it shut down (rip my beautiful girl) and it inspired me to explore more sites like this. i really love the indie web and i also really love tumblr so this is totally my kind of thing.

i'll summarise my interests:

• cats (i have one called artie, i love him so much)
• computers (favourites are panasonic cf-w4 & cf-62, also any thinkpad ever. i have a thinkpad e560 dualbooting windows 7 pro and linux mint xfce 21.4)
• many many tv shows. my absolute favourites ever are life on mars/ashes to ashes and good omens, i'd say. i also love bbc ghosts (i've been to button house!), our flag means death (need to rewatch this so bad), don't hug me i'm scared (i went batshit mental when the c4 show came out), bbc merlin (every so often i just… remember that the finale was a real thing that aired on tv and not some fic i read), the great british sewing bee (i lock in so hard for this every year), and taskmaster (i <3 comedy). i've also watched supernatural. i'm watching interview with the vampire rn and LOVING it.
• team starkid: i've loved this group since i was eleven years old and absolutely going through it. i've been really lucky to see them live - i saw darren/joey/lauren at the london palladium on 15.10.2023, starkid innit on 12.05.2024, i can't believe it's been a little less than a year on 27.04.2025, and i'll be seeing the guy who didn't like musicals on the west end on 26.05.2026
• shoot from the hip: i found out about them in december 2024, but i got heavily into them in december 2025 because i booked to go and see them live on a whim and it altered me fundamentally (in the interval i was sitting in my seat borderline shaking messaging every single person i knew that i could feel myself becoming more and more abnormal and that they needed to get into this asap). as i live not too far from london (£10 return on the train with my railcard), i've seen them quite a lot of times in quite a short span of time - 06.12.2025, 22.02.2026, 14.03.2026, and i'm sure there are more to come (i'm looking to book 16.05.2026, and i'm going to 04.10.2026).
• live theatre and comedy in general! i go to quite a lot of shows and i love the whole experience - not just the show itself, but getting to meet so many people has been quite life-changing for me.
• chappell roan: i LOVE chappell roan! i was a couple of months late to the party but when i did listen to her it really altered me greatly. my second listen of good luck babe made me break down in tears, not because of the lyrics or anything but just because i guess i couldn't process how a song can be so GOOD. i can hardly watch a video of her performing without crying, it's actually insane, i can't get over what an insanely good performer she is. i saw her at reading festival on 22.08.2025 and i'm not even joking when i said i hardly made it out of the arena.
• my chemical romance: AGHH i love mcr so much. comparatively to a lot of fans i had my mcr awakening quite late i think but i did walk into that summer blonde and leave it with purple hair. i'm seeing them at wembley on 11.07.2026 and i am so fucking scared
• dan and phil: i was a phan by proxy for YEARS but then after the hard launch i bit the bullet and finally joined the ranks. & now i have their calendar on my wall <3

i think that's all for now. you can find my personal website here, where i'll probably write a bit more in depth about my interests, although there's not loads there yet. hoping to make some friends on here so don't be shy about saying hello if we share any interests (or just if you want to make a friend really). bye!

Okay I think I am starting to get how this platform works! Hi, my name is Rat. I am a 25 year old forestry student. Big biology nerd, current hyperfixation is Gravity Falls!! I adore billford and the crazy long analysis that a lot of fans have. Also a huge fan of Stanford Pines with a growing hoard of merch.

I write fic and occasionally draw. You might know me for stalking tumblr ask boxes and contributing to the Bill Cipher MPREG zine.

My zine contribution, and my current fic project, the The Moth Effect

Really hope to track down tumblr friends on here!!

@thomaschristopherking

#Welcome ! Yes, it's great to do #introduction -s Just so we learn a bit about you. You sound like you're going to fit right in. I love the idea of #narrowboat s.. I hope you find your peeps

An #introduction: I'm Raph, and I teach IT related stuff in a business school that decided to fully embrace (generative) AI.
I am seeing first-hand the damage that synthetic text extruders are doing and how inappropriate our response is.
I have been on the fediverse on and off for a while but I am now looking to engage with people who share the same concerns. #education #onderwijs

hey so um on ios are we all using the wafrn app or a mobile browser? because well. see screenshot

i dont like the look of the app (loudish color scheme + textual clutter + is cut off at the bottom dimensionswise on my phone + 'notification permissions not granted' annoyance persisting) so i came to mobile browser for its sweet sweet minimalism but now uh

Do people do intro posts on Mastodon? I don't know.

Hi, I'm Thomas - new here and possibly moving from Threads because it's driving me nuts.

From the UK, live on a narrowboat, PhD in formal logic focussing on legal reasoning. Now a software engineer trying building a site to document arguments ( Controvis ) - argumentation is one of my main interests (both formal and not).

Economically left and socially liberal. Was a member of the Lib Dems but didn't think they took a hard enough stance against transphobia. So erm, maybe I'll join the Greens, I don't know.

New gender, new #introduction: Hi, I'm Aeryn, I enjoy bicycling, cozy romances, and sci-fi (yes, I did name myself after Officer Sun from Farscape, she's totally badass and her series-long deprogramming arc is relatable). If I ever win the lottery I'll go back to teaching, but in the meantime I spend my days being frustrated by computers. I CW politics, which was more fun to follow until the news got so consistently ignorant and cruel. My transition goal is to be just another mom.

I've been on Mastodon for almost 3 years and I've never done an #Introduction...

So hi, I'm NerdNextDoor. I do lots of things like music, programming (mostly OS/kernel stuff), blogging, other technical crap and I contribute to open-source.

I come from Scotland and I have autism, diagnosed in 2021.

I run a few projects such as EVi, The MCLE Code Collective, Arikoto, Inori, tauIRC and plenty of other things.

I'm left-wing too, and I really like the #GreenParty!

My name is Moog, but everyone calls me "gay". I'm a 21 year old man who sold his mother for a train ticket to Netherlands for a generous price of wan doler.

I have a PhD in fedimeta and a Master's in the Disc Horse.

I've been specializing in Deutsche Bahn delay stock market ever since I left my home country. In a span of 2 years I made 1 tillian euros total, which I have invested into making the life of god-fearing, VVD-voting middle class Dutch families from the Randstad area miserable.

My hobbies include urinating into OpenAI's datacenters responsible for generating images, which resulted in the infamous "AI piss filter", bestowing VAC bans on Russian TF2 players who main Heavy on behalf of Gabe Newell, and setting off tactical nukes onto Square Enix's headquarters as a reminder for them to develop a decent update for Final Fantasy XIV.

I have defeated Sam Altman on Pokemon Showdown in the Anything Goes [Gen 6] format, I called Charlie Kirk an Arceus spammer and ragebaited him into getting permabanned.

I also invented the wheel btw. And I do not use Arch.

Hi, I'm brib. I've recently done a bunch of instancehopping but I'm liking this #GoToSocial instance thing so I think I might stick around here for a while.

In case the rampant self-hosting doesn't make it obvious, I'm a tech worker, or at least I would be if the tech industry wasn't quite so evil. In the meantime I'm looking for work. #FediHire me if you want someone who likes tinkering with servers and has achieved a better uptime over February than Amazon or Claude.

I draw sometimes (but haven't done this in a while), I write sometimes (and got Low Spoons Day endorsed by @WeirdWriter !), I jump between projects like the #AuDHD-er I am, and... yeah. I don't know where my time goes, but I have a sneaking suspicion it might be shitposting on here.

I'm looking to meet fellow queerdos and #plural folk and neurodivergent peeps and techies who are just as fed up of AI bullshit as myself. Please say hi if we seem to vibe 😀 .

#introduction

Hi there, Fediverse! I'm Koichi.

I'm a Japanese Data Science student in the U.S, and an Open Source enthusiast. I'd like to share my project progress and my writing. Hope to connect with others who share the same interest. I'm interested in and learning Zig, ML, Linux, Nix/NixOS, and RiverWM. NixOS is pretty tough, but I think I need to keep learning patiently. It's pretty fun and at least working. Look forward to sharing more!

#introduction

We are #Ikiya and we are finally on #Mastodon and the #Fediverse !

We are a small #Japanese shop located in Treviso, near Venice, and we focus on bringing to Italy a selection of Japanese teas (such as #matcha), ingredients for your recipes, kimono and haori, handmade pottery and much more.

We would like to start leaving mainstream social media for good to connect with our customers in a different way, and this is our first step towards a better communication.

Happy to be here!

Hello dear fediverse,

I’m Osden, a visual artist (sculpture, installation, video, & more) deeply interested in human/non-human relationships, art as speculative fiction, more just futures, ecological responsibility, and place-responsive & community engaged art.

I’m masc-leaning & non-binary, pansexual; Mad & chronically ill; a uni prof in studio art; kinda wordy; and go by Sheri as a professional/public pseudonym.

Cycling, hiking, seed harvesting, seed bombs, DIY community projects, & harm reduction are some of my great loves. I’m nerdy about native plants & hide-tanning; forever in awe of nature.

Doing my best to enact care in the face of so much local and global injustice. 🆓 🇵🇸

We are #Ikiya and we are finally on #Mastodon and the #Fediverse !

We are a small #Japanese shop located in Treviso, near Venice, and we focus on bringing to Italy a selection of Japanese teas (such as #matcha), ingredients for your recipes, kimono and haori, handmade pottery and much more.

We would like to start leaving mainstream social media for good to connect with our customers in a different way, and this is our first step towards a better communication.

Happy to be here!

Voici ici une page consacrée aux pochettes pirates réalisées par des illustratrices, illustrateurs, graphistes, peintres, graveurs, graveuses, des amateurs sachant manier le crayon ou non, des passionnés de musique.
Des gens qui fabriquent des pochettes fictives pour leurs copies cd ou k7 ou pour aucun support physique, juste pour le plaisir.
De fausses couvertures d'albums, des semi-vraies, des quasi identiques, des rien à voir...

Si vous êtes motivé et que vous produisez des choses, envoyez-moi vos images, je les posterai ici.

I've been on Mastodon for almost 3 years and I've never done an #Introduction...

So hi, I'm NerdNextDoor. I do lots of things like music, programming (mostly OS/kernel stuff), blogging, other technical crap and I contribute to open-source.

I come from Scotland and I have autism, diagnosed in 2021.

I run a few projects such as EVi, The MCLE Code Collective, Arikoto, Inori, tauIRC and plenty of other things.

I'm left-wing too, and I really like the #GreenParty!

Unsurprisingly, you'll find my own website and blog (with entries going back close to 25 years) at https://www.mediaactivist.com where you can find out more about me. But for now here's a fresh #introduction! I'm a Britain-based #solarpunk passionate about helping to make the world a better place through the liberatory power of multimedia technology, particularly DIY media such as non-centralised social networks and good old fashioned #zines. My "day job" is freelancing mostly in non-profits while caring for my partner, who has myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) caused by #Covid she contracted six years ago today. By "night," I continue to work on something called The SilenceBreaker: https://silencebreaker.mediaactivist.com

Greetings everyone. This is my second attempt here on Mastodon. I suppose another #introduction post is in order. I had a glitch with the first account and I'm starting over. Fingers crossed.

I'm against mass surveillance. I believe privacy matters. Corporations have a deplorable habit of taking our privacy away piece by piece, so it's up to us to take it back.

I'm not as technically inclined as most here. I believe knowledge is power, my opinions are not always agreeable to many, and I boost things I find interesting.

Because I missed #caturday, (and don't have a cat at this time), please accept this painting by Diane Irvine Armitage as my offering.

Hello! This is my latest account because I'm done self hosting!! This is my cozy girl era, so I'm really into coloring, word puzzles, and reading. I also play rugby and love to post about it. #Introduction

I migrated my profile here, so let's add a short #introduction:

I am the #developer of #ArcaneChat, one of the #DeltaChat developers and many other small projects related to it, like creating or porting several web apps to #webxdc (in-chat mini-apps), I also develop several #bots for the mentioned chat apps

Outside #programming I like to cook, #hike, learn to play the #guitar, chill listening to music, drink green tea, learn #German language (and I would like to learn #Portuguese, #Italian and #French if I even finish with German 😅)

I speak #Spanish and #English but I will be speaking only English in this account

Heyyyy everynyan
my IRL friends told me to make an account here and i said why not (even though i am SCARED OF SOCIAL MEDIA)
I heard it's less toxic out there so i gotta try
I wouldn't normally go out of my y2k shell, but since i kinda need commisions and possible interest in what i'm doing, i need to have some sort of social media, because sadly, in this day and age, you cannot go anywhere without any social media. Boowomp…
I hope i can be your friend! I'm kinda nervous to post this
Here's a MS Paint Doodle

Hi, I'm Ridley!

I think a lot about building healthier online communities. I'm interested in distributed computing, consent-focused design, privacy, and object capability programming.

I am currently working on a Dart-based implementation of https://ocapn.org which I hope will make it easier to create distributed and federated applications.

I am very grateful to have @nlnet sponsoring some of this work.

​Hi! 📢

I'm Vinterkarusell.

​I'm a #music producer with a strong passion for #photography \\ music‑wise I bend towards #EDM, while photography stretches from drone/aerial shots to architecture and everyday stills.

​A big believer in #privacy, digital independence, and owning your own space online, powered by #FOSS and #Linux.

​When I'm not crafting electronic noise or framing pixels, I’m reading terms and conditions of whatever just to feel something. 😁

​Also, I get paid to talk. Not paid a lot, mind you—I just talk a lot.

​Feel free to connect! ✨️

Hello! :3 I'm Nor, a cosplayer of almost 4 years now, who's residing in Finland. Torilla tavataan :3

I mainly cosplay characters from series and games that I relate to a lot, like Scaramouche from Genshin Impact in this instance.

This project has been in the works for many years now, and I still intend to cosplay more of Scaramouche because I want to share his story with everyone. So I hope you look forward to seeing more of him on my feed ^^

I've also cosplayed from Alien Stage, and most recently from The Summer Hikaru Died. :3

I'm slowly going to start posting here from now on because I'm trying to find a cosplay community outside of the Gram T-T

Feel free to share this and I hope to find more cosplayers on here <3

#introduction

Oyo;

je suis Violet Black - ou Viock, et j'ai décidé de me lancer dans la BD et l'illustration. J'ai plein de projets que j'ai l'intention de partager ici (et sur d'autres plateformes). Va y avoir plusieurs séries en parallèle, à un rythme pas encore très bien défini mais idéalement assez régulier et pas trop espacé (on verra bien ce que ça donne en vrai...).

Voici mon Linktree :

J'explique ma politique sur les alts de mes BD publiées ici dans le post suivant.

#introduction 💕

I'm a freelancer practicing UX, graphic design & information architecture. I work for businesses large and small, non-profits, artists, musicians, mystics, and more to advance a more beautiful and usable web.

My care for my work stems from a love of relationships and intricacies. I immerse myself in my local biosphere, on the web, and in the client space through observing, writing, building, artmaking, and divining.

As I am planning to post a lot here about Animal Crossing, an Animal Crossing specific introduction is in order so I can pin it!

Meet my Resident Representative. Matt from the amazing island of Moduland. The starter fruit was peaches and, of course, my title is "Sleepless Father."

This is an older islander's Passport Photo to showing them in the fancy Aldi Ugly Christmas Sweater (MO-KN99-MHKX-XLC1). Will replace this with one with a newer islander photo later.

Check out the alt text and the photo for more info.

#Introduction This is an introduction for my journa account. I've administered https://tehcanadian.social from the start of my fediverse journey in 2022 and am now proud to head a team that is stewarding https://newsie.social and https://journa.host. I believe that independent journalism is a cornerstone pillar of the fediverse and as such I'll do my level best to maintain these instances as a safe haven for journalists (journa.host) and news outlets (newsie.social).

#Introduction Hello to my friends old and new. I've migrated here to this new account after 4-ish years on mastodon.social. So far, seems to be going well, with my followers list transferring over in its own sweet time.

I'm a novelist, poet, and playwright. My WIP is #SolarPunk, featuring sail-powered cargo trade in a post-fossil-fuelled world. All my novels (two more in the editing queue) are available from this delightful small house publisher: https://www.beatentrackpublishing.com/?ref=DavidBridger

Hello, I'm new here, never used Twitter and still figuring this out. I'm currently obsessed with extracting myself from US big tech and building a quieter, more sovereign digital life. Also completely overwhelmed by the state of the world, like everyone else. Hoping this can be a small corner that feels a little safer. #introduction #privacy #digitalsovereignty

#introduction . J'essaye : j'ai pris le pseudo "Meredith" à cause de la série. J'aimais bien voir les relations entre les gens. Je travail à temps partiel dans une assurance cela me paie les factures. Totalement déclassée par ce monde je viens sur pouet.chapril pour essayer de me tenir informée de la vie quotidienne des jeunes humains et un peu de tech. Je mange des pizzas et je bois du thé vert. Je ne tricote pas et je n'ai pas de chat.

Bonjour, on m'a dit qu'il fallait se présenter en arrivant alors je m'exécute 🤓 Je m'appelle Vic, actuellement je suis développeuse mais avant ça j'ai travaillé quelques années dans le secteur associatif. J'aime autant parler de machines qui font bip boup que de politique, de bouquins ou de ciné (je m'intéresse de plus en plus aux films d'horreurs et je prends volontiers les reco). Sur mon temps libre je fais de la bagarre sur patins à roulettes (aka le roller derby) et j'essaie vaguement de faire pousser des trucs dans un jardin partagé.
Je contribue pas ou peu sur les RS en général mais peut-être que Mastodon me donnera envie de participer un peu plus !
#introduction

They say everyone has a story;

but they didn't say it was of epic, multidimensional proportions—

nor that with conscious, multidimensional awareness comes a greater responsibility,

not only for mankind, but also for her future and legacy.

Greetings

My name is Dane, and this is my story:

Hello Fediverse! ⚓

I joined Mastodon because I miss the "old internet" feel where you could actually get to know someone through a long-form exchange. I’m a fan of details, technical specs, and hearing about people's lives from different corners of the globe.

Give me a follow if you like ocean views, boat talk, or just want a pen pal who actually writes back.

Hey everyone! This is @mdmrn@urusai.social with a second account on Mstdn.Games. As someone who posts a LOT about Animal Crossing, thought a second home here made sense.

So, allow me to introduce myself to folks from here.

Who am I? I'm a 40+ year old Dad with 4 kids/ Other descriptors: Christian, enviromancer, leftist, nerd, and a major Animal Crossing enjoyer.

Primary Nonsense I Post: Dad jokes, Animal Crossing, manga, music (lots of J-Pop and K-Pop), NYT Games (Wordle, Strands, Connections - always behind a spoiler), Animal Crossing.

Fav Games: Animal Crossing: New Horizons, Pokemon Crystal, Sonic the Hedgehog 2, F-Zero 99, Super Puzzle Fighter

Hi, the Mastodons. I don't know how this works yet or how active I'll be here, but I thought I'd introduce myself.

I'm a UK-based female AuDHD adult, choosing to remain mostly anonymous. I'm really just curious about how the Fediverse works - I can be ambivalent about social media but I thought this sounded refreshing in contrast to the big, powerful platforms which feel scarier to me by the minute. I've also been getting to grips with Linux recently, and am thinking about other ways within my limited means and courage to try to be involved with more of the small things that are about moving away from exploitation and towards caring for each other.

Take care out there :)

#introduction

An updated #introduction after giving it some more thought ...

I'm Matt, an artist and musician based in Toronto/Tkaronto. I work in and around computation, thinking about its histories, politics, culture, and computation-as-material. My main efforts right now are around computational poetics, expanded sculpture, and net art. I believe computers could be something different in the world, and try to embody that in my work and life.

I make music mainly as New Tendencies, but sometimes under other names and used to play in a number of punk/post-punk bands in addition to my more experimental/electronic/computer music and sound art. I also have a very very small label/press called <blink>.

I live with my partner of over 20 years and a 10 year old Bengal cat named Iggy (because she's a real wild child).

My online life goes back to around 1992 when I started calling BBS's, and running one... then soon after getting an internet connection and basically living on IRC where I got into the demo/tracker scene and started making computer music.

Also love sci-fi, video games, Hackers (1995), bad reality tv, cocktails...

Here are some links.

G'day,

I'm Kev. I'm over 60, retired ex military and I take photos. I'm a long time Linux user.

I got kicked off of Meta products because I refuse to upload a video selfie to prove I'm over 16 years old. 🤔

Tried Bluesky, but's it full of people trying to build their follower count. I prefer the Fediverse.

I swear occasionally, post Australian landscape photos and probably some garbage. (You have been warned)

It's nice to be here.

Hello everyone 👋

This is the official account of the Green Office of the University of Groningen.

We work to advance sustainability across the university — from strategy and policy to research and community initiatives.📝

We joined Mastodon to engage in open discussions on sustainability in higher education, academic research, and institutional change.

We look forward to exchanging ideas and learning from this community! 💚

Hello, Merveilles! I'm a dilettante programmer and salaryman webmaster living in Tokyo, Japan.

Free Software is important to me (I put Fedora on my ThinkPad). My favourite programming languages are Lisp and Smalltalk. I also like LaTeX and (parts of) the Web.

I'm recently rekindling an interest in photography, and enjoy taking long walks and train rides with a (rangefinder) camera.

#introduction #theLobby

Something we would really like to have at https://archaeo.social, but haven't been able to find the time for, is a bot that welcomes new users, gives them tips on how to populate their feed, encourages them to make an #introduction post, then automatically boosts it.

Otherwise unfortunately we see that, on a small instance like ours, most new users never get past that initial empty feed.

If anybody wants to take this on, it'd be much appreciated!

#Introduction

Hello, my name is Christoff, & live in the STL metro, IL, USA.

Interests: #malware/offensive cybersecurity R&D, ink & #watercolor #art, reading #scifi from 1950-1980, #geek board and card games, & #horror and scifi movies.

Music: On my #guitar daily. It is a creative expression vehicle divorced from computing (mostly) and I love that. Listen to #Phish or #GratefulDead all the time.

Work: #pentesting, purple/red team, and code malware (in that order). Adversarial services lead.

Bon... Ben #introduction
Je suis éditeur en presses universitaires mais je suis en arrêt depuis quelques temps. #Autisme, TAG et #dépression (au moins) ne font pas bons ménage avec le travail dans cette société violente.

La ligne édito va être hasardeuse : j'alterne entre absence des écrans (parfois) et addiction à ces derniers (souvent), et j'ai des obsessions sur des sujets un peu random.

Parmi les constantes, il y aura la #technocritique, la lecture, le trashtalk de politiques ah et aussi j'espère que tu aimes le #thé. J'adore le thé.

Bisous (si c'est okay bien sûr)

New instance, so I guess I should do a new #introduction !

Hi all! I’m first-year computer engineering grad student, focusing on embedded systems. In my downtime, I’m a gamer, playing a lot of MMOs and other online games. I also enjoy reading and writing, when I can find the time. I’m a full-time non-Windows user, splitting my time evenly between macOS and Linux.

I’m a former resident on mastodon.technology (RIP), cybre.space (RIP), and bsd.network, so hello to anyone from there!

I decided to move my mastodon profile over to social.lol, so thought I'd take a moment to say hello.

Based in Burnley in the UK, I talk about exploring with our canine children, watching football and rugby league around the country, keeping fit, playing old video games, learning to write code really slowly, and growing things even more slowly at our allotment.

I try to publish on my 11ty based website https://l.prry.uk first and share from there.

Still trying to get my head around everything else at omg.lol!

We encourage active participation to raise awareness and foster resilience. We value the creative exchange with people of different ages and backgrounds.

We are open every Tuesday + Thursday from 11:00 to 12:00, plus announced activities.

I am a human being. I have a body, and I love that I do, no matter how much trouble it gives me. I modify it as needed.

I stay in the shadows because I am sick of feeding the machine, sick of being data to ingest, label, categorize, and steal. Yes, I am a stereotype, a queer anarchist woman who doesn't like labels. I don't need explanation, I am embodied, I am in "this here".

I still am in the shared virtual everywhere. Seeing it getting abused doesn't make me stop loving what it can be.

I spend so much time being tired that I forget who I am. I always wake back up, with stories and images and code.

I want human connection. I want to make sure everyone knows they're loved and worthy.

I am protective of wetlands. My safe quiet place growing up was a small wetland with disused hiking paths. It's better maintained now, and I live elsewhere.

I collect books about Mesopotamia. I read them, too.

When in doubt, I trust Zhuang Zi.

If you need to know me, we will find each other. It's much more difficult to find me a second time.

Hello, Fediverse 👋

I'm Sophie. I run a digital ops consultancy from the south of France, working with values-led businesses.

I'm in the process of leaving Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn. I got tired of building on platforms that sell our data, gut safety systems to please politicians, and treat people as products.

Still figuring it all out. Would love to connect.

#Introduction #EthicalSocialMedia #SmallBusiness #DeleteMeta #Fediverse #DigitalEthics

Hello Fedi! I'm finally writing my #Introduction post after being a lurker for years (2022 is when I made my first account). I've never really been active on any social media, but Mastodon is unique and I'd like to experience the sense of community that it offers.

A bit about me! I live in a fairly small town in #Saskatchewan on Treaty 4 land. I enjoy #gardening, #walking, and playing #guitar. I am collecting and digitizing CDs which I enjoy through a modest, self hosted Jellyfin server. I gave #Linux a shot several years ago and have since been in love with the principles of #opensource and #FOSS. Recently I've been working to improve #OpenStreetMap in my area to make it a more viable option for others in my community.

I'm a proud democratic socialist, and I believe in the project of universal liberation. I support the rights of #workers, the #LGBTQIA community, and #immigrants. I oppose #fascism and believe that we once again find ourselves at the crossroads of #socialism and barbarism. Despite how grim everything looks now, I see enough good in the world to remain optimistic for the future. This is one place in particular that brings me hope. Y'all are cool here 👍

#Introductions continued: Freakbox, my funny instrument. Talks out loud here saying hello to fedimates in this video #introduction

Johannes Karkia syntyi korona-aikana modulaarisyntetisaattorikaninkoloon sukeltamisen seurauksena. Eurorack- ja muilla syntetisaattoreilla tehtyä elektro-tekno-ambient-industrialia tms. Toinen puolisko Karkia Walo -runomusiikkiduosta @aikako kanssa. Mastodoniin tilin tekeminen lienee yritys lähteä vapauttamaan tätäkin projektia paskoontuneiden kaupallisten alustojen ikeen alta.

Johannes Karkia was born during the lockdowns as a result of diving down the modular synth rabbit hole. Elecro/techno/ambient/industrial made on eurorack modular synthesizers. Also half of the Karkia Walo poetry music duo with @aikako. Coming here is an attempt to start freeing this project from under the yoke of enshittified commercial platforms.

hello 2026! new year new #introduction

I'm Léa V.T. (she/they) in Quebec, 37 years old and i've been on the fedi for 4 years now, love it here!

My one brain cell is very focused on drawing my OCs in cars with watercolors, I also make comics of my OCs in cars 🚗

Hello Mastodon 👋

I'm rogi.
I have a 2014 ThinkPad. I run a blog with €5/month. Zero cloud.

I read privacy policies so you don't have to.

Last month: an AI had a 24KB psychological profile built from my conversations. Last week: my passport went through 17 US companies just to get a LinkedIn badge. Nobody mentioned that.

That's what I write about. Not paranoia, just what's actually in the documents.

Nous voilà sur le fédiverse !

Tubercule est un collectif de hackeuses et hackeurs de la région de Rennes qui se veut inclusif et accessible.

Notre but est de créer une communauté d'entraide numérique afin de reprendre en main nos moyens de production et nos vies numériques en développant des savoirs, outils et méthodes accessibles aux collectifs.

N'hésitez pas à nous suivre et consulter nos projets sur https://tubercule.fr

#introduction #hacking #numérique #accessibilité

I am back to Mastodon!
After I ran my own instance for a while and then using threads for some bizarre reason, I am back to Nerdculture.de ♥️

But I lost all my old followers in the process (though I thought I did everything right). Well, this is a fresh start then!

I am Half Korean, Half German, based and born in Berlin, and I talk a lot about food. I work as a Technical Artist / 2D Animator.

You might see toots related to my array of hobbies like making music, crafting and painting miniatures, pen&paper and boardgames, video games...
And yes, also political posts.

Sometimes English, sometimes German and sometimes Korean.

Nice to meet you

#intro #fediverse #welcome #introduction

🇬🇧 INTRO
I'm an English teacher in Italian state schools and I've been on the fediverse for at least 7-8 years, during which I have moved instance twice (this is my my third).

I knit , read Tarot 🃏 (mainly for myself), I love my garden , I feel a little buddhist ☸️ and a little something else altogether ☯️, I've been vegan and antispeciesist for the past 12 years

I take part in eco-veg-transfemminist assemblies trying to change this shitty world we live in. I swing between total despair and the willingness to put my energies to make things a little better.

Moby Dick is my favourite book, and I generally enjoy 19the century US literature.

I've had a blog since I was about 20.

Hello fedi! I'm Vincent. ​​

At my day job, I develop software for laser machines.
In my free time, I break other people's software, try not to break my own hardware & software projects, and run my slightly overengineered homelab. ​​

I also have way too many unfinished projects and am somehow trying to finish my master's degree alongside all of that. ​​

I'm looking forward to attending more chaos events this year and hopefully meeting fancy new people! ​​

Feel free to say hi! ​​ #introduction

Hello! I moved from .ART, and I guess this forces me to update my #introduction

I'm a digital #artist and a software developer. I'm probably known for the new drawing tablet features in the #KDE Plasma 6.x series. I also co-maintain the KDE's Mastodon client Tokodon and their Matrix client NeoChat.

While I slowly re-post my old stuff, all of my work can be found on my website: https://redstrate.com/

Hi, I just moved to this server! My name is Mar. I'm a galician artist (Northwest of Spain) who love digital art, music and photography. My digital drawings are free of Gen AI and I took inspiration from fantasy, horror, sci-fi and Pop/folk culture. I hope being part of this community in a Future. Ty for reading me♥️
#digitalart #newartist #mastoart #introduction

Hello mastoart.social! I just moved instances so let me re-introduce myself.

I'm Ave, an artist who loves tea, cats and weird stuff with too many eyeballs >:D I'm also a pin maker and sell merch at conventions and online.

If you like bright colors and cozy art with a pinch of weirdness then my art may be for you.

Mastodon is my main social network but I am also on Insta and have a shop!
