Hey #fediFriends
Is there interest in monthly support crowdfunding @hosford42 to work on building a matchmaking platform for folks to find local connections of the fediverse community?

An interface to find #meatspaceFediFriends basically.

This is a brand new idea as per:

The best thing about the Fediverse is meeting new friends for a drink and bite to eat.

Thanks to
@nifta @Phil_Tanner @va2lam @Kay for making me and @summerbeth feel so welcome 😀

Astrologer friend drop: "Someone is manifesting you." 🤔

So someone somewhere out there beneath the pale moonlight is using pure Law of Attraction energy to "will" a connection with me? That's intense, bro! :blobcataww:

Sweet thought... but honestly, if you feel that vibe—that pull to connect, collab, or just be friends—you don't need magic. You can just say hello!

Here to build systems and community. Let's make the connection real. :cat_is_blob_and_bi:

👋 My DMs are open and I do comment back on public posts so holla at ya girl.

hi #FediFriends 👋 does anyone have any #Keychron keebs or Keychron #switches in their #keebs? I’m trying to find an optimal setup for a friend’s first #MechKeeb based on her preferences from trying a couple of mine & keen to know about anyone’s experience with Keychron Banana or Silent Yellow switches (as well as any other quiet #tactile switches if you have recs for different brands) 🙏

#MechanicalKeyboards

hi #FediFriends 👋 I’m looking for #recs for a #PowerBank with enough juice to power a laptop via USB-C – which ones have you had good (or bad!) experiences with? which brands do you recommend?

thank you! 💕

pls #boost4reach 🙏

^ well, OK, not all… 🤪

Hi, fedi 💋
I’m Crissy (she/her): bi femme, romantic, cat whisperer, builder of ethical tech, & soft chaos based in Vancouver!

This Halloween, am skipping the crowds & diving into a Planet of the Apes (2011) marathon (just finished Rise: bring on the film trilogy: Dawn 2014, War 2017, Kingdom 2024).

Horror films, gothic art, romanticism, & kawaii doodles are my cozy-season vibe. 🎀🖤✨ HBU?

I’m a naturist & nudity-positive cutie because health includes sunlight, skin, & softness. When not at Wreck Beach for the summer, there's no place like home! 🌞🌸

TLDR: Powered by caffeine, cuddles, & flirty sparkle.

If you vibe with grief-informed joy, haunted beauty, or tech that feels like a hug … come say hi 🐾🌈 as I'd like to make more #Fedifriends

Bonus points if you love cats or federated futures 😏

thank you @fediforum for helping us connect with @TCMuffin & @lexicaleigh - ace moderators of the toot.wales instance.

Not only are we now #FediFriends but we're also hatching plans to help others find the way in the #fediverse ...hopefully en masse! 💪

But first...

Do buddy systems already exist? 🙌

Would a buddy system be helpful to others? 🤝

Is there a catchy name for transitioning from big tech platforms or can we make one up!? 🤔

Do you want to be involved?!! 👀

Please boost!!

Hey FediFriends

I need your help. I started this self-hosted, GoToSocial instance, back in April.

Whilst ‘liking’ a post is good, we all know that boosting is the way to share posts to a wider audience, and it would be fantastic if you would boost this post to help increase my reach into the Fediverse.

Thank you and have a great day 🚀
