I'm a Software Engineering Manager for a WordPress host after a decade working in FOSS software as a dev, after a decade of being a pilot (was a captain for a small airline) and after time trying to play music for a living.
My interests these days are writing, teaching (I've actually been university faculty in 2 disciplines, aviation and computer science), privacy and, above all, humane tech and the policies around it.
I confess I rant a lot but still love conversation π
I enjoy #coffee #tea #reading #sff #history #cooking #singing.
I'm #queer #gay #lgbtq #iconoclast. I #create #software.
I have a weekly #newsletter with stuff I've enjoyed over the preceding week and how it relates to engendering #empathy and social resilience.
My #politics tend to be #progressive #centrist: I want the world to be a better place for everyone while maximizing agency for everyone. I'm sympathetic to #EffectiveAltruism.
I'm from HU, I live in FI, I aspire to be a full-stack DevOps engineer (hardware -> dev experience). I like InfoSec, but mainly from the sidelines. I like humour, webcomics, electronic (and other) music, science, sci-fi, and the outdoors. I like nature more than people. The unfolding climate catastrophe will hurt my children and I try to live with that. I don't believe in god, but I believe in love.
I'm Steve (they/them, he/him).
I'm very ordinary.
Lifelong interests include: storytelling, privacy, DIY, science and science fiction, and how to not be a jerk.
I've written a few fictional and nonfictional things you might have seen.
Right now I'm particularly passionate about finding optimism, user experience, and sustainable programming practices.
Personal stuff and links in my bio. Read that too.
I'm Wolfie (they/them), I'm white British, agender, mid 30s, live in the South of England and am very online!
I have a few alt mastodon accounts (check my profile for links!) but use them rarely, over here I post my daily #Wordle, I live post during #Eurovision, I'm #asexual :heart_ace: , #polyamorous :flag_polyamory: and #gay as heck :100_gay:
I have unusual pets, a #snake, a #RoyalPython called Seraphina π, and several #GALS, (giant african #snails) who I occasionally post about π
I did #Zoology at university and I love unusual, "ugly" and interesting animals!
I'm an old school social media person, I only follow as many people as I can keep up with on my feed as I like to see every post, I have follow requests on and approve them haphazardly!
I'm Logan, thirty-something living in the #PacificNorthwest and working in #Education. I'm interested in #urbanism, #history, #science, history of science, #StarTrek, and #cat photos.
#Gay, He/Him. Trans rights are human rights.
I'm Julia. I'm 35, a translator and I get easily annoyed by small, inconsequential things. guns:
I like crafty things, arty things, video game things and more. I hesitate to be more specific because thanks to hyperfixations the Hobby Du Jour switches all the time.
I have a bunch of mental health issues (depression, social anxiety, agoraphobia, ADHD and likely ASD).
I'm also fat, fun, fmart (let me have this) and German.
Professionally β software engineer for >15 years.
Recreationally β periodically finding new obsessions, most recently: #mechanicalKeyboard, their firmwares, and exotic keyboard layouts.
Obsessions that lasted for a while: learning Japanese, urbanism, bicycles, specialty coffee, photography.
I'm a hobby programmer (mostly Rust these days -- feel free to check out https://github.com/sts10/). Interested in passwords/passphrases, privacy, Linux, Neovim, etc. Occasionally blog about those things here: https://sts10.github.io/
Been happily reading a lot of books this year (novels and non-fiction). Let's trade recommendations?!
I'm physically disabled, something that I almost never talk about, but probably should!
I've worked as a social media editor at CNN and BuzzFeed News, though am looking for a new job at the moment...
Been on here since '17 if you have questions!

My name's Chris. I'm a native Texan but I've lived in the United Kingdom for something like 27 years.
I currently run my own company as a consultant (freelance) DevOps engineer and cloud architect. I've been deeply interested in tech most of my life so that's what brought me to this particular server. π€
Aside from tech, I've got an allotment garden to grow flowers, veg, and fruit in; love to take pictures with my current Canon 80D, and help run a charity.
In true queer and ND manner, I have many interests, among which are tech, philosophy, art and making β¨

Hello! I am coder by profession, who loves to read & write to keep myself inspired. I have been a blogger for more than 15 years, but lost touch with writing when Twitter was at itβs peak. May be I lost love for my words.
Anyway recently IndieWeb got my love for the technology and also writing back. So been working on a lot many Indie projects & writing my heart out at my blog since then. My hope is this place doesn't kill my drive for reading and writing; rather inspires it.
