introduction

#presentation #introduction
Dans l'informatique depuis 30 ans, ayant vu se créer les différents réseaux sociaux, une récente prise de conscience pour les logiciels libres #foss m'a poussé à venir ici.
Pareil pour d'autres applications de communication.
Passionné de nouvelles technologies, j'ai créé mon entreprise en 2010.
Du côté #alsace du pays, j'aime travailler avec nos voisins de l' #Allemagne et de la #Suisse.

Hello!! Just joined Mastodon to make good connections and share my art.
I’m an illustrator and sometimes I do animations and comics.
I have a bunch of interests like manga/anime, animation and I’m in a lot of fandoms.
I also take commissions.
I hope you like my stuff and to make some new friends!

Explorer at heart, traveler by choice. My passion lies in motion—from classic railway routes and ocean voyages to discovering hidden corners of new cities. I’m always plotting the next journey, eager to experience new cultures, landscapes, and perspectives along the way. #Introduction

Time for an #introduction I'm a #Vaporwave artist who enjoys making things look glitchy, nostalgic and aesthetic.

✝️ Jesus is my Lord and Savior ✝️

My hobbies are a mix of the old and new. Im a #christian who is a #femboy that likes #furries, #gaming both #retro and new, #anime, indie web shows, #HazbinHotel, #HelluvaBoss, #LackadaisyCats, #MurderDrones, #Linux (daily driver is #LinuxMint), open source/FOSS software, retro tech and new retro tech, indie games.
I hope to make some friends here

Hello 👋

My sibling asked me to join while we were having some beers because I "made some revelations".
Until now I had totally forgotten why they made me come here for. But it appears it was mostly to made me follow a hashtag not so safe for work.

I think I will mostly stay because I can see them flirt and I find it cute 😽

Please take care of me 🙇

#introduction

Let me introduce myself: I’m Naor, a Dutch guy with a masters degree in experimental physics. I’m passionate about tackling the climate crisis, which is how I’ve ended up in the world of energy transition policy.

I have never really been into social media, mostly because of the companies that run the platforms. But after reading @pluralistic’s book Enshittification I figured I’d give Mastodon a try.

Will be posting in both Dutch and English, depending on the topic.

#introduction

Hi everyone, I'm Stefano

Also known as the BSD Cafe and illumos Cafe barista - @stefano and @stefano@illumos.cafe

This is the first post from littleOne (littleone.littlefedi.social), the first littleFedi instance open to outside users.

littleFedi is a new ActivityPub server, still in active development, written in Go and shipped as a single binary. It speaks standard ActivityPub, so it federates normally with Mastodon, snac, GoToSocial, Akkoma and the rest of the fediverse, and it exposes a Mastodon-compatible API, so most existing apps already work with it.

A few things about it that aren't the usual fediverse defaults:

Catch-up instead of an algorithm. Timelines stay chronological, full stop. There's a separate /catchup page, visited on demand, that ranks what you missed using only signals this instance already has locally - who you follow boosted it, replies and favourites delivered here, hashtags you follow. No external popularity data comes in, nothing about what you read is tracked. It answers "what did I miss" without turning into a feed that decides for you.

Static blogging built in. Any post can be marked as a blog post and gets published as a plain static page under /@username/blog/, with its own permalink, Atom feed, and no JavaScript or database hit per view, while still being a normal federated post underneath. A proper home for longer writing that doesn't need to compete with a timeline.

Self-expiring posts. Any post can be given a timer and auto-delete on its own.

Bubble timeline. A middle ground between local and federated: a timeline scoped to a set of instances you've chosen to group together, not just your own or everything.

littleMesh. A way to federate without a public domain, certificate, or open port at all - meant for something like a Raspberry Pi behind NAT. Instances get an address derived from an Ed25519 key pair and reach each other through pinned relays that never see plaintext.

No trends, no suggestions. These are intentionally left empty. Nothing here is trying to surface "popular" content or keep anyone scrolling longer.

Security defaults taken seriously. Signed federation (HTTP Signatures), optional Object Integrity Proofs, TOTP MFA, audit logs, and full account export, migration and deletion if you ever want your data to live somewhere else.

This instance is here to test all of that with real accounts, not just a small group ones'. In the next few days I'll be reaching out to everyone who already told me they were interested, to set the first accounts up - an invite is coming. If you'd rather just follow along and see how it goes, that works too.

It's a test instance, so expect the occasional rough edge. If something breaks or feels wrong, tell me - that's exactly what this phase is for.

😮‍💨🆘Why is no one replying to me? Why does everyone see the post but do nothing? I'm not a filthy beggar. I just want you to help me survive. No one is replying to me on Signal, Mastdon, or Blue Sky. If you don't want to donate, just write "I don't want to." One day you'll be like me.😞😞

I'm writing these words from my heart because I'm appealing to you all. Thank you to whoever donates, even just one dollar.😭🙏🏻
You enjoy seeing me beg you? I won't forgive anyone. You want to know why? Because I'm 17 years old and I'm supporting my family, and my future is ruined. What am I supposed to do? 😭😭😓🆘🙏🏻👇🏻

#introduction

Hi! I'm Vilde and I’m a Norwegian electronic musician and producer. I release music under the name ILKAMA and make music for theatre/dance. I’m also part of @heartbaby and the duo sgrow, that I share with @lislegaard

I love to make music and would describe my approach and sound as playful and exploratory. I love found sound, off-kilter beats, layered synths and cassette tape. At my day job, I work on making music production more accessible to girls, trans and non-binary youth.

Hej, I'm Florian, or Flo for short (only my family calls me with my full name).

Born 1977 as a gay person, and raised near Lake Constance in the south of Germany.
After my parents got a divorce and my father met another woman, we moved to Dresden, when I was 15.
Lived here until I started my apprenticeship in 2000 in Lindau (Lake Constance), so moved back again.
After being self-employed (ebay seller and creating simple websites), which unfortunately wasn't sustainable, I took a job in the security branch, however only got contracts for one year (three times), until I moved back to Dresden in 2010 and lived here ever since.

Since 2018 I have a dog, which you can see in my header picture, when we took a walk along the river Elbe.

Currently unemployed (since May '24), IT-support (thanks "AI", which overtook my profession, I guess).

Interested in too many things, like minimalism, barefoot shoes, cycling, music, interior design, and much more.
Edit: I love languages, especially constructed ones, like Esperanto, Lingwa de Planeta, Mini Linga, started to learn Swedish, Italian, Welsh, however didn't stick to neither of them.

I was a twitter "power user", from 2009-2022.
Created my first account in the fediverse on mastodon.social in 2018, however only used it sporadically.
Since the end of 2022, I exclusively use the fediverse and experienced different network software (mastodon, akkoma, pixelfed, and now littlefedi).

That's it as an introduction for now 😀

PS: English is my first foreign language, so please bear with me in case of errors.

Je milite un peut en indépendant·e (pas dans des orgas mais des AG et des groupes, assez actif·ve sur les facs)
Je suis étudiant·e en fac de sciences
Récemment découvert·e non binaire
J'aime:
-les sports outdoor (montagne, vélo, bateaux (a voile)),

J'essaye de relayer les infos sur les mobilisations a bordeaux
Je souhaite garder l'anonymat et ne pas trop me révéler avec ce compte.

Why doesn't anyone help me? Why doesn't anyone ask about me? I'm a human being living in Gaza. I've posted so much and no one has helped me. 😭😞

hi! i'm ellie, a queer woman in her late twenties who is really bad when it comes to writing about herself in the third person.

i really enjoy contributing to open source and writing code/software in general, currently mostly in rust. alongside my own stuff i like to try and contribute to projects that i find interesting/have helped me, so i get to learn and experience loads of different languages & stacks!

outside of programming i enjoy devops & self hosting, i daily drive linux (pop!_os + cosmic btw), i play a lot of games (mostly my beloved marksmanship hunter in world of warcraft!) and i love watching countries' eurovision national selections.

i love learning new things, meeting new people & yapping!!

#Introduction #Introductions #NewHere

Hey everyone! Just a quick #introduction for myself:

I’m James (he/him), I’m based in London, and I do a lot of things relating to live coding and crafts.

- I organise workshops and activities around pattern-based things, like lacemaking, live coding and origami, for London Pattern Club.
- I make things using hand knitting and machine knitting, and I dabble in other textile crafts like weaving, crochet and lacemaking.
- I’ve written about crafts and coding for some small press publications (A Yarn And Fibre Publication #2, Softissues).
- I’ve live coded music and visuals under the alias collapse, and I’ve done some teaching and workshop facilitation around live coding for Peckham Digital.
- I currently work as a software developer, and I did my Masters at the Department of Digital Humanities at KCL.

I think that’s everything - great to be here!
