the big stickied thread is getting cluttered with lots of new people and the “how was your week” thread isn’t a great fit for introductions, so it seems about time to make this a dedicated thread of its own so peoples’ posts aren’t getting lost.

tell us a little bit about yourself, folks. don’t gotta be too specific or revealing, just whatever you want to put out there. this’ll be a good way of getting to know all the people you’re now on here with

  • Hey all! never been much of a poster, so I’m hesitant to put down too much of myself to start out. I’ve been passively invested in FOSS communities and technologies for a while, and curious about decentralized, federated services like mastodon for as long as I’ve known about them, but mastodon is too busy for me so I’m glad I’ve found myself here :3

    I don’t expect to be too proactive in the community, but when I do engage, I’ll do my best to respond when responded to. The small community aspect, like the forum days of old others have mentioned in this thread, is compelling to me and I want to be true to it!

    Call me wintermute, or winter im happy to respond to either :) Maybe I’ll follow up with interests, pronouns if I warm up to putting myself out there, or maybe you’ll just have to get to know me by the topics I can’t help but weigh in on ;v
