Hi all, I've just setup my own #GoToSocial instance, so it's time for an updated #introduction

I'm very much into #yoga and #meditation and everything related to that. I'm trying to learn #Sanskrit because its a beautiful language and also in order to be able to read text like the #BhagavadGita #Upanishads #YogaSutras which greatly inspire me.

I'm from the #Netherlands and work in #science in the field of outdoor #AirQuality I may occasionally share something about that, but this is not a work account (and any opinions are my own).

I love #photography , mostly related to #nature #weather #clouds #trees
I love the #forest, I'm grateful to live at the edge of the beautiful #Veluwe nature area.

I love growing food in my #garden using #organic #permaculture and #RegenerativeAgriculture inspired methods, I'm dreaming of tending my own #FoodForest some day.

Unfortunately I'm operating at half power thanks to #LongCovid since Feb. '22, so most of my hobbies are in "maintenance mode".

I'll post in English, my Dutch account is @kedara_nl
I also have a personal website @ https://kedara.eu where I #blog, tend a #DigitalGarden / #wiki and try to contribute to the #Indieweb #smallweb communities.

I've done my fair share of instance hopping and had hoped to solve that by starting my own Akkoma instance, but found GoToSocial more suitable to my needs in the end. I hope to stay here now indefinitely.

Let me know if you have similar interests and I'll be happy to chat!

My summer job is bringing in some new followers, so it's time for a new #introduction post.

Hello! I'm Axiom / Jay, and I currently work as an intern at an #OrganicFarm! I've been passionate about #farming and #agriculture my whole life, and I anticipate the bulk of my posts will be work-related until I go back to my day job in August.

I also post a lot about my #FiberArt projects (#knitting #HandSpinning) and general #homestead activities (#gardening #AngoraRabbits #GrowYourOwn)

Everyone, please welcome

Hello fediverse!
I guess a short #introduction is due: I am an architect and academic trying to avoid other social media and eager to see the fediverse grow. I wish all universities would have their own instances but they don't (yet), so thanks a lot to the @FediverseFoundation for hosting me.
I teach #architecture , #construction and #BuildingMaterials but I am also engaged in #UniversityManagement and #internationalisation .
I will probably post about all this and many other random topics in both English and German, sometimes Spanish, eventually Italian. You can filter languages in your preferences in case you don't want a Babel in your timeline.
Give me some time to get started and see you out there in the 'verse!

About Orchard:

Orchard Project is a community-driven effort to combat and prevent child sexual abuse in online spaces.

Our goal is to provide advice and help community managers in recognizing signs of CSA to prevent rather than react to it.

We are not members of law enforcement or legal experts, so do not seek legal advice from us or report cases of CSA.

Only when collaborating, we can make an effort to minimize abuse.

#introduction
Hello, I go by Sam! I'm an aspiring author writing mostly spicy LGBTQ+ romance in various genres I'm looking forward to self publishing my first novel this year -very excited about that!

I'm here to connect with fellow indie authors, other writers (including fanfic writers), and fans of danmei, bl and general mlm/queer romance -and all kinds of bookish and fannish stuff! I hope my readers can also find me here as an alternative to the mainstream platforms.

I thought I'd post this #introduction

I’m a #productivity enthusiast. I’m interested in #tech

I started this #GoToSocial instance as a mini-project; especially as my coding skills are very, very, limited, so a little bit of education for me. So far, so good.

In my spare time (not that there is much of it) I’m a Cub Scout Leader.

I have an amazing wife and between us we have 5 children - well, I say 'children' but they're all grown up now!

I follow #Formula1 My favourite team is #McLarenF1
I also support #AFCBournemouth

I find #lego to be extremely cathartic and enjoy building when I can.
I #read a lot; usually crime, mystery, thriller
I have also started listening to #audiobooks

I have a #pixelfed account too, where I post a lot of my photos - check it out here: @doonytime

As part of my foray into #selfhosting I also started a Friendica instance... but I'm not sure what I'm going to do with that.

#Nextcloud is where I now hold my documents etc - again self-hosted via a VPS.

It would be great if you would boost and follow so that I can start to build this instance out...

New instance, new #introduction post. I'm an author of #MilitaryHistory and #TTRPG books, and I'm a #BoardGame player.

Most of my posts are likely to be about the #SecondWorldWar, the #ColdWar, and #RPGs.

I'm #ActuallyAutistic and #NonBinary, so might post or boost posts about those topics.

If you would like to get my blog posts direct to your feed, you can do so by following @Russell@russellphillips.uk.

Hallo Wien! Wir sind die Grüne Bildungswerkstatt Wien (GBW Wien), ein grünnaher Verein, der kostenlose Workshops und Veranstaltungen zu grünen Themen anbietet – für alle, die sich politisch engagieren möchten. Der Name verrät es schon…

Dankeschön für die herzliche Begrüßung! Ein großes Danke an alle, die uns schon vor dem ersten Tröt mit einem @ markiert haben. Liebe geht raus.

#neuhier #introduction
Kollektiv Orangotango arbeitet seit 2008 als freundschaftlicher Zusammenschluss von kritischen Geograph*innen und Menschen, die sich kritisch mit Fragen um Raum, Macht und Widerstand auseinandersetzen. Im Rahmen von geographischen Aktivismus wollen wir Prozesse und widerständige Akteure unterstützen, die sozialen Wandel anregen und dabei gelebten gesellschaftlichen Alternativen und marginalisierten Perspektiven mehr Sichtbarkeit verleihen.

Hey y'all. I'm a disabled trans butch (she / they / it) migrating here from the hellsites that are Bluesky and Twitter. I'm into gardening, gaming, and comics, and I've been the more radical flavor of leftist for the last half decade, finally getting involved in local activism over the last year and a half.

I've also pivoted from modding to game dev this year and am learning Godot (emphasis on learning), and working on an incremental game while doing so.

Expect bean pictures.

Since I know I won't run out of characters, here's an image of a non-exhaustive list of interests and hobbies I couldn't fit in my profile. I'll pin this as a late #introduction, then populate a thread with some of my favorite examples, if I have any to share.

#Introduction

Joined Mastodon in 2022 (like a lot of other people). Moving instances for FOMO, my previous instance didn't keep itself up to date.

Every time I thought it was over, but it wasn't. Well, now it is, without a doubt.
Forgive my abruptness earlier. It's very difficult to find a positive angle on this. But there it is, on the positive side. 35 years searching for the Rescue.
Happy Paradise to all.

#introduction

Hey, I’m Jorijn Schrijvershof, a freelance DevOps engineer from the Netherlands.

Driven by open-source and automation, I work on projects from Kubernetes clusters to self-hosted tools.

Outside tech, I'm a sports enthusiast who is into running, Krav Maga, and weightlifting. Proud dad, husband, and cat dad to two Maine Coons.

I'll mostly post about #technology, #opensource, #running, and spending time outdoors, either by foot or on the #motorcycle.

Pinning an #introduction on my newly reactivated account.

I'm a senior #devops engineer, runner and #minimalist.

I'm interested in #aws, #linux, #kubernetes, #serverless and adjacent topics. I've been in the industry, as they say, for over 17 years now. I'm getting old.

I do some #running and #rowing for a bit of physical exercise. I really like computers so I need to sometimes touch grass.
