Moved instances, so this a reintroduction. :)

Formerly @N01100010@mstdn.ca but already feel more at home here at #ZeroesCA

Been hanging around the Fediverse (first, here on Mastodon, now beyond) since '22 (you know... when that thing happened.)

I'm a #privacy focused IT professional, husband, dad, F1 (#LH44) and cricket (Team India, IPL - #PBKS) fan.

Re #Introduction #Fedi22

Wops, I accidentally blocked mastodon.social for a second here on the fediverse.

My apologies to anyone who followed me and got caught in the crossfire, I lost about 79 followers in the process.

I was trying to block a user and misclicked without paying attention

So sorry for the inconvenience!

Sending you all on mastodon.social lots of love!

@dansup does the #fedi22 hashtag need to stay in your bio for the directory entry to stay active?

Yo no soy de les veteranes, pero ya llevo unos añitos por aquí: cosecha del 22.

Nunca he llegado a hacer una presentación pero creo que toda la información importante está en el perfil (que retoco con frecuencia).

Hay algo más de detalle en la intro de mi blog de notas, que también está enlazada en el perfil https://loar.albir.eu/about/

Hi, hey, hallo & welcome to Mastodon

I have seen a surge of new users joining the fediverse and especially Mastodon over the past few months leading up to the new presidential term.

Feel free to introduce yourself and maybe follow a few people that seem friendly, interesting, or share your values!

Let me introduce myself to the new people joining our community:

Autistic AF. I'm all about anarcho-syndicalism, privacy, security, Buddhism, Psychedelics, GrapheneOS, Debian, Elementary, PeerTube, and way more. Gender-fluid—He/She, His/Her, whatever works; I'm not here to fit anyone's mold. Also, I really like Linux—because I love free software and systems that actually respects my freedom!

If you’re not into my rants about anarcho-syndicalism or my thoughts on computer operating systems, no worries. My Pixelfed is a great place to follow me without all the noise.

In 2025, I’ll be sharing monthly updates about my life, like a recap of each month, so if you want to see what I’m up to without the extra opinions, feel free to check it out!

@revoluciana I love it when people I follow on Mastodon has a webpage and blog with RSS support, that makes my day!

If you’re feeling anxious about the next Trump administration and the grip of Big Tech, take a moment to think about where you’re getting your information. If you’re reading this on my RSS feed or here on Mastodon, congratulations—you’re already part of a decentralized alternative that doesn’t rely on corporate giants.

You don’t need to depend on Big Tech to live a simple life. It’s possible to step back and live below your means, focusing on what truly matters instead of getting caught up in the endless cycle of consumption. Reflect on the repentance needed for all the tech you consume daily. Every time you log onto a corporate platform, remember that you’re feeding into a system that prioritizes profit over your well-being.

Living simply doesn’t mean giving up; it means reclaiming your independence. The Fediverse is waiting for you, offering a chance to connect with others who share your values without the interference of algorithms and ads.

So, if you're feeling overwhelmed by the state of things, remember: you have choices. You can break free from the digital chains of Big Tech and find community in spaces that respect your autonomy. Let’s prioritize genuine connections and take back our freedom from corporate control.

The #fediverse has made its stance clear, and I find myself in agreement with blocking threads.net.

The decentralized nature of this network empowers users to connect across various platforms without the constraints imposed by major corporations.

#TIL about https://fediverse.info/explore/people, a directory of #Fedi users. It's super quick and easy to add yourself, just add #fedi22 hashtag and any other topic hashtags you want to your bio and then click the "Add Account" button to opt in to the directory. No login required.

Nämen vilken bra grej!

Om man lägger till #fedi22 i sin bio tillsammans med ett gäng andra hashtaggar som #svpol #swehaiku eller nåt annat och sen "lägger till" sitt konto på https://fediverse.info så blir man sökbar där.

Nu ska jag bara luska ut vad för taggar som används mest på svenska mastodon för att se om jag kan hitta andra intressanta personer.

Har ni hittat folk eller ämnen mha #fedi22?

Tack för tipset @meraord

You learn something new every day!

You can make yourself discoverable on https://fediverse.info by
1. adding #fedi22 to your bio
2. adding some relevant hashtags
3. heading to the website to add yourself manually!

If you tend to post often under #DogsOfMastodon , add it and I'll follow you if I haven't already! I try to follow everyone who I notice post their dogs regularly but I always mistakenly skip a few!

@mz2 What is the #fedi22 tag in your bio?
