#introduction Omg, je viens d’utiliser le premier hashtag de ma vie!
Audiodescriptrice (c’est moi qui écris et qui dis entre les dialogues d’un film - pour les personnes qui ne voient pas - quand les persos ouvrent ou ferment des portes. Sauf que si le cinéma c’était ouvrir et fermer des portes, ça se saurait et puis ça coûterait moins cher). Ex-documentariste (ceux à qui on demande s’ils réalisent des films animaliers ou s’ils travaillent dans un CDI). Pas assez de signes pour en dire +

#introduction

Ciao, sono Stefano. Sono Barista del BSD Cafe e della relativa istanza Mastodon: https://mastodon.bsd.cafe

Il mio utente Fediverse principale è dunque @stefano

Sono nel Fediverse da molti anni, prima su istanze più grandi, poi in una delle mie. Questa è una mia vecchia istanza, online dal 2022, che ho deciso di ricominciare ad usare come piccolo “diario” delle piccole cose di tutti i giorni. Pubblicherò principalmente sia in inglese che italiano - anche foto o altro. Continuerò a pubblicare dal mio account del BSD Cafe come prima e qui pubblicherò quelle cose in più che sul BSD Cafe non ho fino ad ora pubblicato. Come un diario, un flusso di pensieri. I post scadranno - non so ancora quanto lunga sarà la loro vita, ma non credo li lascerò troppo a lungo. I flussi di pensieri, dopo un po’, finiscono per essere obsoleti e dimenticati.

Per maggiori informazioni su di me e su cosa faccio, ci sono riferimenti sia sui miei blog (linkati al profilo) che sul mio profilo del BSD Cafe.

#Introduction #Fediverse #Fediverso

Hello people of mastodon! I’m here, I’m queer 🌈🦄 But I do prefer wine over beer! How about you? I don’t even know what this place is or does so I’m just screaming out into the aether! …or, well… the aether was debunked by scientists in like.. the 1920’s…but isn’t it kind of an expression people use? Or is that another aether? (I could be translating weird from Swedish too) I’ll have to research this now 😄
#aether #science #new #introduction

Helloooo! Let's try this #introduction #mastodon.. #newhere
I'm Caroline from The Netherlands, have been eyeing all the beautiful #photography accounts (amongst others)
Hope to connect on this platform!
Other interests: #sleeptoken #coffee #sarcasm #mentalhealth #psychology #science #sciencefunfacts #metalmusic #blues #soul #love #kindness #helpingothers and so on

I'm not, in any way, shape or form a photographer but here are some shots 😆

Howdy to Mastodon! I'm still wrapping my head around things here but figured I'd go ahead and do an #introduction.

I'm a #landscape and #nature #photographer based out of Fort Worth, #Texas which means, aside from my local park, I do a LOT of driving for #photography, especially to #utah and the desert southwest.

I produce my own #prints for sale, create educational and in-field videos for YouTube, and also offer workshops.

Learn more about me here: https://www.michaelrungphotography.com

Hello Mastodon! ✨
As Meta lost it’s marbles (and me, I can’t work in places like that, noup), I’m gladly giving this a go 👋

So I guess this is my #introduction post! 😄

I’m Tiia, a nature & fine art #photographer from Southern Finland 🇫🇮 I shoot mostly macro but also some landscapes. I used to work in IT and also as a business coach but took my leap of faith last summer and made photography my job ❤️ Feels so good to be ”home”!

So nice to meet you! 😍

I never did get around to writing an #introduction over here, did I? Not sure there's much point anymore, but here goes:

I'm rainey and I'm a shy weirdo who needs encouragement to let my freak flag fly. When I'm not being ooky, I'm shamelessly appreciating cute kittens and the like. (Here I pause and reach out to pet @netkitty ) Gen X, child-free, married, and an abject failure at adulting. The sunflower in my display name is the "invisible disability" symbol.

This is my third Mastodon account and second "definitely probably not a cult" experience (the first being pretty much the only reason I'm still on reddit). My first Masto account is @raineyday [MSTDN.games] where I talk about #GenshinImpact a lot, and my second is @raineyday@neurodifferent.me [NeuroDifferent.me] because I'm not autistic but I do have #ADHD and #Tourette, although I don't post to the second one very often and when I do, it tends to be boosts, memes, and information-seeking.

Anyhow, if you can't tell from my avatars, I'm a fan of the #AddamsFamily and #DoctorWho. I also despise #spoilers with the blazing heat of a trillion trillion suns, so always ask "How caught up are you with XYZ?" before discussing with me (and ponder for a moment why "Have you gotten to the part where they--?" is a terrible horrible no-good very bad way to ask).

I created this account on a Wednesday the 13th (naturally), but the timestamp on my account page got messed up and fails to reflect this. It's goth erasure, I'm tellin' ya! 🦇

I write blog-like toots on Wednesdays (of course) under the hashtag #raineyWednesday and tag @weirdfolks

I do my best to write good #AltText for my images. Even when I have low spoons, I strive for a bare minimum of "acceptable". I have similar standards for what I will boost. If there is no alt-text or it is insufficient, I will either leave it or I will "steal" the image to post myself with better alt-text. This applies to all of my accounts, of course.

I come to Mastodon for virtual human interaction and fun times, and while it's nice to take a break from politics and the news, please don't mistake that for me being so-called "apolitical". I am quite progressive-left and often wonder how it came to be that I had to trade in the label of "liberal" for that. Perhaps a combination of I moved forward a little bit and they moved backwards a lot? But that's enough of that topic. This is just background info, not my desired focus.

#introduction

My name is Sundrop of Emerald.sys of the Emerald system of @ezmyrelda@em.erge.to

Here is my original introduction from the first time I described myself.

I am a hybrid light/goo girl. Think of encapsulated light.. my “skin” is a bright green but transparent and my insides are a lovely neon teal. I have a central core of sunlight color inside me. I appear to be about 27 human years old. I am curvy and voluptuous. I have short hair filaments in a pixie cut that glow neon white. I use a goo glamour to make it look like I wear spectacles… They are really high tech optical translation servers. I am the part of the system that is well adapted to technical skills. We enjoy doing the geeky type stuff for the system.. Like setting up and maintaining the website.

More introduction details as I discover them and describe them here. This is our first true account to stretch in to.

Anti-fascist, and Anti-Capitalist but understand we still live in a society.

I am the mother of my systems technology and a system diagnostician at heart. I love software. Installing it, configuring it, using it.

I'm new here! As an introduction, one of my earlier artworks: a small lighted sporophyte moss light. More to follow!

Bonjour le #introduction !

Je traine sur le fediverse depuis 2017 où je m'autoradicalise à vos côtés. Je souhaite la fin du 🔥 capitalisme avant la fin du monde. J'aime la technologie hors des GAFAM, je suis fan de #gentoo et d' #alpine #linux . J'aimerai que chacun puisse s'auto-héberger et j'ai développé une obsession pour les ⌨️ #claviers (mais je me soigne par injection de radinerie).

Je passe mon temps à mater des 🎬 films et il me tarde le beau temps pour aller faire des promenades en 🚲 #vélo et je fais un peu d' 🧗‍♂️ #escalade.

Je tiens un blog 🔗 que je spam de temps à autre pour éviter de me répéter. Je co-administre également l'instance :craftopiart: Craftopi.art ainsi que le réseau irc Geeknode où vous pourrez me retrouver. :-)

#introduction It's my second day on this account. I've created an account every six months to test the waters, but micro blogging hasn't been my cup of tea, and I delete them. I've quit Reddit for Lemmy in '23, FB in '18, and never had the others.

Now, though, I want to stay informed, and since I don't have to accept the corporatization in the other places.

I don't allow my apps to connect to their trackers, and I hope I always have that power.

#introduction Italian, European, citizen of the world. Internet user since 1998 but started with PC in 1989. Formerly facebook, now stable on Mastodon 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. #accessibility #WordPress #blind #activism

Bonjour bonjour, je m'appelle Malone Silence, je suis auteur de fantastique, d'horreur et globalement d'histoires hantées où apparaissent souvent des chiens. J'écris et publie la trilogie "Stanley n'est pas mort" - campagne Ulule du dernier tome prévue pour le 4 avril prochain 🦉 - et j'ai d'autres romans en préparation 👀 Vous pouvez voir mon taff sur https://malonesilence.com !

New #Introduction! I'm May (any pronouns, just use them with intention). A settler living on Treaty 13 territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit in Tkaronto/Toronto.

I care deeply about community, and that underpins almost everything that I do. My current active work is in building better B2B/B2B2C software product organizations, 2SLGBTQIA+ inclusive digital participation, and building local communities.

Trying to be a better human.

I don't even have a real character limit anymore. 😈 This is what I post about:

- Primarily #topoli, #onpoli, #cdnpoli. (It's election season for 2/3. Gonna be loud.)
- Attempting to de-FAANG my digital footprint.
- My product/org design/outcomes thoughts and work.
- Food and how it ties us together.
- And of course, shitposts.

Currently, I am so nervous. 😅
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Oh hey, you made it here.

I am new. I will list some things about me.

I live in the US 🇺🇸
I am a Black American🧑🏿‍🦱
I am a nonbinary person
My pronouns are they/them
I have diagnosed ADHD (you'll be able to tell)
I studied art in university (waste of time) 🎨
I love to write ✍🏿
I currently am (as of 2025) studying computer science in university🧑🏿‍💻
I previously had accounts on Wordpress and many other social media but frequently have breakdowns and delete them or abandon them.

I am so glad to meet you, and I can't wait to learn more about the communities around.

Thanks for listening!

#introduction #artist #writer #adhd

I have, belatedly, realised that I didn't do an introduction in this instance. I joined the Fediverse a couple of years ago, as Xhitter became rapidly more toxic, and have travelled a couple of instances before choosing to become fully Beige.
Previous usernames may not have been identical.

Generation Jones, not a conservative, and definitely anti-genocide.

I grew up during the Troubles, left NI to join the Army. Served for 15 years, then left to work in the NHS, left that to work for a medical electronics company, then back to work for the NHS again.
I've also worked as a delivery driver amongst other things.
Now my wife of 42 years has retired as well, interests are our tandem, our campervan, our 2 dogs, and local choir.

I hate what Brexit has done to the UK, I hate what the previous UK government did, and am seriously disappointed with the current replacement. I particularly abhor the stoking of hatred against minorities.
I think everyone would be better off if there were fewer people around who wish to impose their views of what would be good for other people, on those other people.

Reposting my #introduction, since I'm seeing a lot of fresh faces recently. I'm an associate professor at UMass Amherst, where I teach about #journalism and #MediaIndustries. My research focuses on media distribution and, occasionally, dysfunction in the adtech industry.

I also co-edit a book series on the civic impacts of media distribution for The MIT Press. Feel free to hit me up if you're working on a relevant project!
