Hello! Irish filmmaker based in Scotland, fleeing so far into the analogue that I’m making a feature film entirely out of paper cutouts. Here is paper cutout me and my paper sound kit, recording a large paper cutout hole. #introduction #theworldisflatafterall
Hi, I’m José. Just moved over from Twitter.
I’m a software engineer based in the UK. At work I build distributed systems in Rust; outside work I experiment with languages and systems programming, and I read a lot (classics, sci-fi, history). My blog is linked in my profile (recently migrated from GitHub to Codeberg).
I love talking about low-level code, performance, and distributed systems, and anything book related.
Feel free to say hi, and I’m always happy to receive book recommendations.
Hello Fediverse -- let's have an #introduction and introduce ourselves :3
We're dotmeow, a queer-run community project to register the gTLD .meow. But not only for meows and giggles! The profits of this gTLD shall go to community causes, turning every domain into queer community support, especially focusing on trans issues.
While we've already passed the ICANN Application Support Program, we're just now launching our web & social media presence(s). So while there's not much to see here yet, follow us if you're interested in registering a .meow domain and potentially supporting us in the way -- crowdfunding TBA soon.
Outside of announcements we want to engage with the fediverse as regular fedizens and won't spam you with meaningless ads <3
I've moved instance, so here's my #introduction.
Currently I do History Walks in Venice, where I live.
I ran a kayaking business in Venice for over ten years.
I worked in IT for some time, mostly sysadm, web, lots of Perl, Linux, SQL.
I once tried academia but it didn't make me happy. However, I wrote a book about the Sicilian mafia.
I spent about ten years at university, and had lots of fun, and got a MSc in CS & math, and MA in history & Italian. Wrote GNU M4.
#introduction Italian, European, citizen of the world. Internet user since 1998 but started with PC in 1989. Formerly facebook, now stable on Mastodon - formerly "talksina" on MastodonUno italian instance; still "talksina" as handle into Linkedin, WordPress .org profile, google (till it lasts) and github, as it's impossible to edit profile name. I believe in data liberation and ownership. I work on accessibility (web and apps), I have a disability myself (totally blind). Blogger, WordPress user and MarkDown lover, interested in electronic voices and creating audio-dramas with text-to-speech. AI user, moderately optimistic. HIV awareness advocate. Firmly against tech-based "age verification" on sexuality related sites. Education should do the job, allowing governments to control Internet is introduction to censorship. #accessibility #WordPress #blind #disability #hiv #advocacy
Hi Everybody! This is my introduction post. If you want to know more about me: feel free to scroll through my timeline.
I just want to say: these humanist devices are terrible to operate when you have fins. So be patient with me when I make stupid writing errors...
Hello #Mastodon! 👋 This is my #Introduction here.
I'm a solo dev making my first #Cozy game for Steam called #Catomino.
Honestly, I’m kinda obsessed with how these cats jiggle 🐈✨

Nouveau pseudo, nouvelle #Introduction
Non binaire, je me ballade sur le spectre du genre. Préférence du moment : un mix de neutre et de féminin. J'utilise le point médian mais vous pouvez expérimenter d'autres accords (sauf tout masculin)
Créature peu sociable, pessimiste, et team handi, c'est souvent difficile d'interagir et de garder une présence régulière sur les réseaux.
Mais j'y reste pour vous lire, progresser dans la lutte contre les discriminations et écouter la parole des concerné·es, découvrir vos créa ou voir vos compagnons à poils, plumes, écailles,...
Way back in 2022, I wrote up how I came to be on Mastodon: https://mweston.wordpress.com/2022/11/21/elon-musk-the-twitter-fiasco-and-mastodon/
Since then I have almost entirely left #CorporateSocialMedia. I do still have a Facebook account, but use it much less and deleted most of my personal data (education, work, etc.). I've never really used LinkedIn or YouTube as social media, but do still have those as well. I *have* closed my Twitter, Instagram, and WhatsApp accounts, and never had a TikTok account. I experimented with Threads and Bluesky, but have since closed those accounts as well.
I am now in the process of moving from being @mweston to this server, since in the current #PoliticalAtmosphere I wanted a non-US-based server. Consider this post, my bio, and my link tree to be my #introduction
I'm looking forward to getting used to my new home on the Fediverse!
#introduction
In 2020, we started by opening a community grocery store in #lisbon, with socially and environmentally responsible products, but today we are a multisectoral #cooperative with six active sections:
- Consumption: manages the grocery store
- Culture: manages the Cave Cultural
- Services: manages the Co-Work Space, provides self-employment services and hosts the Malha Cooperativa project
- Housing: Habirizoma
- Agricultural: urban #agroecology projects
- Handicrafts
Hi! I'm Ivan.
This is my self-hosted instance on #Mastodon, fueled by caffeine and stubbornness.
I'm a #music producer with a strong passion for #photography — musicwise I bend towards #EDM, while photography stretches from drone/aerial to architecture and basic still/everyday life.
Big believer in #privacy, digital independence and owning your own space online, powered by #FOSS and #Linux.
Feel free to connect! ✨
Hi hello, I'm Bridget from Los Angeles! At 27, I'm taking my first steps on Mastodon.
I recently quit my desk job to reimagine my life outside of corporate America. As such, I've got spare time to reimagine the internet alongside you fine #forkiverse folk. No spare money though. Womp.
I'm a writer (or will be once the burnout subsides), interested in the brain, identity, culture and empathy.
Hobby harpist+violinist. Always down some research rabbit hole. Occasionally funny! #introduction
I love how every time I'm faced with making an #introduction , I don't know what to say anymore.
I am a writer and poet who dabbles in a bit of art and design. I read the #tarot and my tarot group gives me joy. I just started a POEM CLUB where I send out a poem-of-the-month to subscribers (First Month Count: 3). I also do custom poems.
I'm constantly starting or restarting something creative.
I'm in my late 40s.

Rebonjour,
Je refais une introduction car plusieurs personnes ont dû voir que je partage énormément de messages venant de Gaza, https://gaza-verified.org notamment, que certaines personnes sont en train de vite oublier.
Donc changement d'approche, nouvelle intro n'est-ce pas?
Ça fait depuis tout petit que j'entends parler de la Palestine. Et ça fait depuis 20 ans que je milite.
Contre et pour beaucoup de choses.
🦣 Pas d’Éléphant place de la Bastille… mais Paris Musées arrive sur Mastodon 👋

Hello, I’m the founder of the Bookhouse Institute, a small cultural organisation dedicated to the creation & preservation of unique books, puzzles & treasure hunts.
Part bookshop and part creative studio, we design and publish limited edition books and hide treasure hunts in them. If you solve the puzzles and find the treasure first, it’s yours.

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.
#NewHere #introduction
👋🏻 Hi, I’m Mark—welcome! This is my #introduction.
I’m a platform engineer pivoting from 30 years in #Perl to #Go, #Kubernetes, and #AWS. I write about systems thinking, career transitions, and production engineering at https://PhoenixTrap.com
I’m an #Objectivist—principles aren’t aspirations, they’re requirements. When reality and principle conflict, you change reality. I write about consciousness, identity, and the work of crossing the boundary between theory and practice at https://TheBeautifulPrison.com.
You’ll also see #BassGuitar, #DragonCon, #DeltaHCon, and #Comicpalooza when life permits. I self-host this Mastodon instance because decentralization matters.
For Rand newcomers, start with _The #AynRand Reader_: https://AynRand.org/novels/the-ayn-rand-reader/
Glad you’re here—pull up a chair.
So I guess it's time for an #introduction. Well, I'm a 30 something #Black #queer woman. I love to read #books. I love the #NYKnicks. I like #bicycles even though, it's not my primary mode of transportation. I like refurbishing and upgrading old electronics, specifically #iPods and #laptops. #TV and music have kept me going more than anything else. I'm branching into #Linux and getting more familiar with #FOSS. I am a #blogger and I have linked my blog in my bio.
Hi, I am Søren (the "ø" is pronounced like the "ea" in "Earth"), a guy from Denmark. I am trying out the #fediverse to see what it is all about and support it with a bit of content.
I post about #Lego and #EuropeanAlternatives (and #DanmarkSkifter in Danish), but as a person who goes through hobbies like people go through.. stuff they change often.. that is bound to change down the road. In tha last year I have been around sewing, macramé, 3d printing, and a few others.
I've been here since the 2022 Great Twitter Exodus, and I've apparently never posted an #introduction, so…
I'm a #GenX techie who's lived in #Boston since the late 80's.
My 15 minutes of fame were being fired by #DOGE from #USDS early in 2025 and sounding the alarm in every media outlet that'd listen since nobody else was doing it. I'm not a fan of limelight, so I stopped when others took up the baton.
My politics are aggressively progressive and antifascist, and I post about them a lot.

Hey Punkstodon.de! Thanks for having me!
I'm a vegan dude that grew up in a hardcore punk scene in the south of Brazil. I'm a visual artist and burned out animator, trying to figure out what my next thing will be (I need to change a few things or I'll spontaneously combust). I'm also a linux and foss nerd.
Here goes a band from around these parts of the world:
I've been on here for a while, but in this new era of having my real name as my display name, it's finally time to write an #introduction post. I spend most of my time being a full-time #carer for an unwell member of my family. Before that, I was a lecturer in mechanical and marine #engineering at #PlymouthUniversity, and before that a postdoc researching various bits of #environmentalPhysics and #engineeringFluidMechanics at the #UniversityOfCambridge and #UniversityCollegeLondon...

(Update)
Heyo. I'm Diotima, a semi fictional (?) tiefling (part devil) girl, occultist, writer, and chaotic mess of a strange girl. I adventure, cause trouble, and pretty much do a lot of the stuffs your parents told you not to do.
Slut, bitch, delusional... yesh, I've heard them all. And tbh, I don't always disagree.
Aside from actively working to overthrow the billionaire oligarchy and fighting judeochristian religion and its evil god, I like to watch spoopy stuffs, research lost knowledge, and play amazing games like Baldur's Gate. I also enjoy travel and causing probs for terrible people.
Oh and spicy stuffs. Obvs.
I'm Pan & Demisexual, Polyamorous, heathen of a bitch. I like cats over dogs. I'm a vegetarian. And I once did sus things on the hood of a car.
...just making sure you're still reading ha ha. That story is in my blog, linked in my profile.
Anyway. Hi again and see you in the public feed!
