I guess everyone is doing #introduction again so I guess I'll redo mine.
Hi I'm Bojun, I'm a #software engineer mostly building event driven systems with #golang . I also play with #clojure from time to time.
I'm diagnosed #adhd and probably #autistic
I'm a regular enjoyer of #anime
My thoots maybe all over the place as I tend to #hyperfocus on nish things often but also thoots about #software engineering things I'm looking at
If you are new to the #fediverse welcome :)
seeing some new faces here! welcome. here are the ground rules:
- there are none. there is no āusing it wrongā.
- use content warnings however you want (or not at all)
- ignore tone policing. it can get a bit much, soā¦
- ā¦if someone gives you the ick, block āem.
our time is short and valuable ā thereās no point in spending some of it letting some dude hound you in replies for not calling Twitter āthe bird siteā. that guy sucks.
enjoy your stay besties āŗļøāļøāØ
So⦠welcome to new users in the #Fediverse network!
If you are exploring the fediverse through the #Mastodon software, feel free to explore other platforms like #Streams #Calckey #Hubzilla #Friendica #Akkoma to mention a few, for your usual āstatus updatesā (and more) UI/UX.
If you want a platform more focused on photos and images, then there is #Pixelfed. Or, you want bookshelves and tracking what you've read, or leaving #book reviews, there is #BookWyrm.
But the beauty of it all, all of these are connected to the fediverse. You can follow any user regardless of which software they are using; AND regardless which server (domain name) they signed-up for.
For example, my accounts are:
* @youronlyone - a Mastodon instance (https://c.im)
* @youronlyone - a Calckey instance (https://calckey.social)
* @[email protected] - a Pixelfed instance (https://pixelfed.social)
* @[email protected] - a #Rebased #Pleroma instance (https://c.wtf)
* @[email protected] - a #PeerTube instance (https://p.lu)
* @[email protected] - a BookWyrm instance (https://bookwyrm.social)
Note #1: There are other instances. For example, https://calckey.world You can check out https://fedidb.org for more.
Note #2: You rarely need an account in other instances. I have other accounts because (1) I like to test; and (2) I use them for different purposes.
We even have fediverse #groups hosted at https://chirp.social and https://a.gup.pe You can follow any group from your existing fediverse account and participate.
Again, welcome! Don't forget to post your #intro / #introduction and update your profile with the tag #fedi22!
My greatest advice to those concerned: Start archiving. If you come across something you believe is valuable: make a copy.
If you follow a guide on how to install and configure software and you found it helpful: make a copy.
If you come across a video you really enjoy and find yourself coming back to again and again: make a copy.
If it means anything to you: make a copy, or you'll wish you did.
Hello, new folks from Twitter,
- Welcome to the fediverse!
- If youāve joined mastodon.social because it was the default option in the app, please look to move to a smaller instance so mastodon.social doesnāt grow to become Twitter 2.0. (You can use https://instances.social to find a new instance or ask folks on here for suggestions.)
- Please add alternate text to your images so people who use screen readers can join in too. (https://accessibility.huit.harvard.edu/describe-content-images)
boosts appreciated
I urgently need to find somewhere new to live (i'm in Berlin). I am female, 19, trans, and I work as a software engineer and have a stable income.
I am looking for a room in a wg, if you or anyone you know is looking for somebody please reach out to me.
