#intro 01—Hello #Forkiverse!
I've been working on the Internet in civil service since 1996, and helped building the first .gov.br websites. I though we we're doing good, but we were kind of naive then. Now it's time to get our old Internet back, and from everything I've seen, I came to the conclusion that…we have to "finish building #theFediverse."
Today I work at the Brazilian Institute for #Museums, we are exploring ways to bring #memoryInstitutions into the #Fediverse:

If you're new here and having trouble building connections, I suggest:
1) look at the feed for your instance and follow anyone who looks interesting!
2) follow a few hashtags to find people who are interesting to you. Following #intro and #introduction helps with this!
3) make your own #introduction post
4) remember that platforms like Instagram and Facebook build your connections by being creepy and harvesting your data. Things take longer on here for good reason!

I'm currently trying to recreate my profile after the unexpected demise of #outdoorsLGBT, and figured this time around I'd write an #intro post. I'm #nonbinary and vibe with things I've seen in #actuallyAutistic posts. I'm a software engineer working in the Seattle area. I like animals and nature. I haven't tended to post much, and I'm interested in enough things that it's hard to guess what I'm likely to boost ( #linguistics, #archaeology, #publicTransit)
I am Anubis. You probably know who I am. I am a guide and protector. On here, however, I shall, most likely, talk and post about various topics which I am interested in. I am, of course, interested in Ancient Egypt and mythology, but also art, philosophy and religion. I am currently trying my hand at creating various (albeit very simple) emoji. I also enjoy music, writing and reading. I will, most likely, also share various jokes. Additionally, it is likely that I will also talk about various everyday events and technology and language.
I do not, as of yet, have my own website. However, I shall be working on creating on in the foreseeable future.
Feel free to talk to me if you wish, but please introduce yourself and state the reason for your wishing to talk to me. I am not the best at small talk.
Additionally, I would appreciate it if you could boost this post so that our newly-created instance can get some help with federation.
New account, new #intro post.
My name is Zef. I’m #Dutch, but for the last 15 years have been living in #Poland. I’m married and have three sons.
I’m the #CTO at fixly.pl, a Polish services (handymen etc.) reverse market place. I also write alt.management.
As a hobby, for close to 4 years, I’ve been developing @silverbulletmd a #selfhosted #OpenSource #markdown based note taking app that is programmable with #Lua. I’m currently finding ways to make spending more time on #SilverBullet financially sustainable as its user base has been growing significantly over the years.
In addition, I’m increasingly interested in the #selfhosting community, looking for more ways to break away from #BigTech and to gain more #DigitalSovereignity by regaining control and ownership of the digital assets I care about.

Updated #Introduction for 2026.
I'm Lewie. I mostly post about whatever my current hyperfocus is. At the moment it's #Running, #BaldursGate3 and #MiniPainting.
I will routinely post varying flavours of metal music recommendations. Usually #Deathcore and #Metalcore or whatever else takes my fancy.
I'm hoping to watch some more #movies and read more books this year.
And #Fallout. I'm a simp for Fallout.
I also post about my #Cat, Luci, my physical/mental health and work.

I just noticed I am close to 1000 followers. I never broke 1000 on any the corporate owned platforms which I have long left. If you like caves, nature, and occasional adorable dog photos, mind helping me break 1000 followers for the first time ever? I'm a scientist who studies critters who live in caves, and also train dogs, because just one job in this economy? 😂
I am also vehemently against GenAI and will post ideas for getting off of / decreasing reliance on iNaturalist (who has gotten in bed with Google GenAI). Occasional other science communication type posts as well, and happy to answer questions! I always alt text and camel case because I believe in accessibility.
ETA: I do occasionally post "creepy crawly" photos, but I use hashtags so if you don't want to see a cave spider or such, I am easy to filter. I understand that some people just want to see cool passages and formations, and wish to skip the invertebrates. (Filter recommendations: "spider" and "invertebrate" which I use as a catch-all for more leggy critters you may not know the names for.)

Hi! I'm James and I play guitar. My main music project has been Strange Textures, a podcast of improvised guitar recorded live each week. Lots more about that on my website.
Abstract and impressionist, it changes. It's me, recorded in the moment and not repeated, including the happy accidents*. It often has a soothing effect and is meant to be listened to, but can work in the background.
I've been using Mastodon for a couple of years, took a break and decided to start from scratch on a different instance because I think it's time for a change.

❥ I am happily married! 
❥ I am a 🐈 #cat mom to 3 and a 🐶 #doggo mom to 1 very crazy #whippet. I will likely be posting a lot of pictures of my #cats Saria, Majora, and Link, along with the occasional Mabel picture.
❥ I am a Linux Server Administrator. 
❥ I currently live in Arkansas in the US, but I'm trying my hardest to relocate out of the South for obvious reasons. 
❥ My memory is absolutely terrible, can't really recall a majority of my past. 
❥ I’m reasonably confident in my programming ability; my projects are often less so. 
❥ Took a 🇯🇵 #Japanese language course in high school only to forget it all the next year. Currently working on relearning what I've forgotten.
❥ Use to be super involved with 🎭 #theatre. I was in a mime troupe in high school; I learned mime stuff, stilt & ball walking, small bit of 🤸 acrobatic stuff, diabolo stuff. I was active on stage and behind the curtains for several shows throughout high school and college. My social anxiety has mostly put an end to that chapter of my life, though.
❥ In my free time I'm either tinkering with my 
#homelab, watching 
#jellyfin or youtube, 
reading #manga or #webtoons, 
playing video games (sometimes on #Twitch), or taking 📸 pictures of my cats.
Feel free to add me, I enjoy meeting new people!
