Trying out the fediverse for the first time today. I've been reading a lot about it, now it's time to figure out how it works and build an internet home here.

My goal is to figure out how I can bring gobikecamping.com/ into the fediverse and help people who love bike touring own their data and escape the metaverse.

Hi! Hello!

This is izzy with Technically Good, a blog/website/newsletter project that:

🐘 suggests more privacy friendly, and/or decentralized, alternatives to those large, enshittified platforms; and
🤖 advocates for ethical AI regulation and digital sovereignty.

In a nutshell, it defends and helps rebuild a web that serves users (not advertisers), and advocates for using our tech for good.

Hey everyone, I’m #newhere. Trying to find an active diaspora pod and fully de-Google my life.

I’m interested in #airsoft, #art-and-creativity, #art-and-design, #buddhisim ,#geo-politics, #graphic-design, #guinapig, #guinea pig, #photography, #politics, and #politics-and-government.

New server so time for an introduction!

Often lost in my hobbies and sometimes this thing called life. Wandering through midlife and wondering how I got here. Late diagnosed AuDHD and a Scorpio. Cat and snail admirer.

Looking to make friends and prefer to use Mastodon for the things I love.

Hello #Fediverse! Time for a proper #Introduction.

I’m a hobbyist developer and engineer (outside the tech industry) who loves building tools for education and personal use. I’m currently focused on:

🐍 #Python & #Django – Working through a 30-day library challenge right now!

💻 #Linux – Running #Fedora on my System76 laptop.

🏠 #HomeLab – Managing an #OpenMediaVault setup on a Ugreen DXP2800, plus lots of #Docker and #Portainer tinkering.

🗺️ #Geospatial – Exploring data science projects.

Current Projects:

DITS: A custom issue tracker application.

Devnexus: A lite weight TUI issue and pull request application

mgl_website: My MickGeekLabs.org website and blog

Byte_Board_Blog: My personal blog project.

Pushing code to my local #Gitea (MickGeekLabs) and GitHub.

When I’m not debugging, I’m likely hanging out with my 16-year-old ginger tabby cat. 🐈

Looking forward to connecting with the #SelfHosted, #Python, and #Dev community here!

Question to everybody who joined the Fediverse in the past few days:

Was it because of digital independence day or because of Trump?

Anyway, welcome to the Fediverse and if you need anything I'm here for you.

Hey everyone, I’m #newhere. I’m interested in #atheism, #photography, #science, and #skepticism

I have a long journey in diaspora.

Came to diaspora when G+ closed years ago, then the instance closed and I moved to diasporasocial,net
That server was disconnected days ago. All of this week it shows as Error 500, with no other information, and no heads up from the admins. A friend here suggested I join. Now I have to figure out how to regain content, and contacts.

I have been a photographer (never a professional) for over 40 years. Now retired from a long career in IT, am devoting most of my time to travel and photography.

Will post more when I regain contacts, and figure out how to connect in diaspora again.

Hey everyone, I’m #newhere. I’m interested in #beauty, #decay, #poetry, #pre-and-post-culture, and #undeadism.

New but not-new. I was on diasp.eu server for about a decade.

I create wyrd things -> therainwillco.me/

👋:🌊

Good people behind diaspora.psyco.fr/,
Thank you very much for a new home 🙏

#enough #said #therainwillcome

Hey everyone, I’m #newhere. I’m interested in #books, #greeklanguage, #pagan, #poetry, and #wales. Thanks for the invite, @Andrew Pam!

Previously on diasporasocial, which seems to have disappeared without warning. Before that on diasp.eu, which disappeared with plenty of warning. Maybe Glass Wings will stay around a while...!

I can be found, also, on libranet.de (Friendica) and mastodon.sdf.org

Hey everyone, I’m #newhere. I’m interested in #hamsters, #humor, #literature, and #photography. Thanks for the invite, @Brian Fitzgerald!

I’m back — AGAIN — on another pod. Hope this is the last change for a while.

People of the #fediverse.

What is the etiquette around boosting your own older posts?

#boost #newhere (ish) #mastodon

Hey everyone, I’m not really #newhere but my old pod is shutting down. Please feel free to start sharing with me if you did so on mkwadee@disap.eu.

Thanks for the invite, @Brad Koehn ☑️!

Looking for advice on how to reach new listeners in the Fediverse!

We’re an indie band from Germany that makes singer-songwriter style songs with high production value (even though we do it all ourselves: writing, performing, recording, mixing and mastering).

We’ve been on Mastodon for a year or so now, but have to admit we haven’t really learned the ropes yet. We’d like to finally get the hang of it though. Any tips for us rookies?

#Introduction
Hi everyone! I’m Carlos Tomas Grahm, an independent mathematician who previously worked on NSF-funded modeling and continuum mechanics research under a Hopkins-affiliated PI.

My current focus is the intersection of mathematical logic, complexity theory, and applied modeling — how rigorous math can clarify or even accelerate discoveries in other sciences. I enjoy discussing ideas that connect theory to real-world systems and would love to meet others exploring similar links.

Looking forward to learning, sharing, and helping translate tricky math into useful models!
