here it goes:

what surprises me about the #fediverse is the diversity of ages. am turning 60 and there’s A LOT of folks here 10-20 years older.

so if #Mastodon #Lemmy #Pixelfed aren't just scripty kids but also grandparents, who’s here?

people finding their communities without shitty techbro algorithms.

the fediverse is a new era of #Luddites. we are not here to serve the interests of capitalists. we’re here for the #anarchy of community; because celebrating our Humanity is punk as fuck.

Imos, aínda non rematamos.

The United States has threatened to drop their biggest bomb on Iran.

B-52s are being loaded with DVDs of the Melania documentary.

Day 2 on Mastodon:

I don’t fully understand the Fediverse yet, but everyone seems super nice and no one's tried to sell me crypto, so that’s already an improvement over most of the internet. 🔐😅

So, if you like birds, bees, gardens, my quirky art, or quiet backyard moments… we’ll probably get along just fine. 🌿🐦🐝🎨

Hope you're all having a wonderful day ✌🏻

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.

My first post on Mastodon, as well as my first day in the Fediverse and a new start away from the bin-fire that is Faceb00k.
