Anyway, hi, and welcome to my corner of Mastodon.
I like games, terrible jokes, tech and music. Also books, mostly sci-fi and the odd fantasy thing thrown in now and then.

I still curate a #JetpackCompose newsletter at https://jetc.dev/ -- you'll see me link to the issues here when they come out on Tuesdays.

I am O. Westin, a #writer of #MicroFiction, mostly #ScienceFiction and #fantasy #fiction, and occasional #poetry. My stories are generally less than 280 characters, because I also post to Twitter.
No set schedule, stories are written and posted when inspiration strikes.
I am LGBTQIA+ positive, and usually favour wholesome over darkness and edgy nihilism.

My favorite coding language is #rustlang, but I "speak" #typescript, #javascript, #html, #css, too.
I'm also capable in #python and #swift, but not as much.
I'm new to the mastodon/toot style of communication (never used Twitter, either), so I'm still learning of how this all works.
My goal is to give you some behind-the scenes peeks onto the DeltaChat development.

I'm Hex, I'm about to be 30 and I'm a queer esports disaster from the east coast of Canada
I like tech, video games, community, mutual aid, and positivity.
I'm active on twitter but limited by my career visibility so I'm always looking for other places to be able to express myself. I'm not ashamed of who I am or my online presence. I just gotta split it up so the venture capitalists don't notice right away. ๐
#introduction
Hi! I'm Soyun, an interdisciplinary artist from Korea, based in The Hague, The Netherlands.
With my interest in relationships between humans and machines, I create #performance, #installation, #film (s), often involving sound.
Recently I worked on a performance about machine learning and surrealism. https://soyunparrrk.com/projects/fantasia_realism
Also, I make an interview series hearing the stories of people who're building creative and supportive communities with positive use of technology. https://www.twitch.tv/rgbdogtv
Thank you for reading my introduction and nice to meet you all!
I used to work at a war crimes tribunal, a few e-commerce places, and am now using my practice to build alternative distributed #p4p systems.
Right now Iโm working full-time on Earthstar, a FLOSS tool for offline-first, small, undiscoverable networks. https://earthstar-project.org
I also used to have the time to make a lot of odd-format, narrated webcomics like this one: http://gwil.co/peaches/leader.
Thank you for letting me in here! #introduction
Earthstar
Sync stuff you care about with people you know. Earthstar is a specification and Javascript library for building online tools you can truly call your own.earthstar-project.org
my personal art practice usually centres around language, meaning, power, & identity; you can see more of my works at http://hnr.fyi (i am now self-hosting with a totally hand-coded site!)
i produce art events, exhibitions, publications and community projects with ninetales collective, run by myself and my partner, gem. we have a website at http://www.ninetalescollective.org
i also curate a monthly vending machine based artist residency in norwich, called special dispensations. more info on that can be found at http://www.specialdispensations.net (this one's self-hosted and hand-built too!)
whatever i'm doing is usually centred around performance, events, and happenings, and i am currently working on developing an improvisational, musical, and agile performance practice. i'm also working with artists, musicians and organisers locally on developing sustainable ways experimental performance can inhabit more of the fabric of our irl scene. in my day job i produce stand-up comedy!
i'm always looking for new ways to think about community, integrity, communication, and connection, and always choosing to build forwards positively rather than retreat in fear from oppressive structures

I see myself posting about my life, about #philosophy & #politics, maybe about some #foss-related stuff...
Hey y'all, my name is Dmitry, I'm an IT technician. I like mostly everything about computers related stuff, and maybe (maybe not) will post something interesting about it!
Also I'm big fan of rock and electronic music, so if you want, you can suggest your favorite bands to me. Currently obsessed with music of Janis Joplin, her vocal is just amazing
Also English is not my native language, so feel free to point to my mistakes. Cheers!
Hi. I am @fyrfli@bkgrdclrshm.link also known as @fyrfli@mastodon.coffe.

I am also an avid #Gamer currently unable to resist a good #RemnantsFromTheAshes session (and those can last all day if I am not careful). I also play #ARK and #WoW.
I hail from Kingston, #Jamaica and and am married with no children.
Hi! I'm a scientist working with large maps of galaxies (real and simulated).

I am a doctoral candidate at the Research Group for Applied Software Engineering (Prof. Bruegge) at the Technical University of Munich (TUM). My research focuses on computer science education and automated assessments of textual exercises. In addition, I am teaching the lecture courses Introduction to Software Engineering (~2,200 students) and Patterns in Software Engineering (~700 students) at TUM.
Hi, I'm Paul. I'm a computer musician and researcher, currently thinking about lyricism what it means for a computer to sing. I explore quirky vocal synthesis DSP algorithms and try to control them in interesting ways.
As a musician-turned-programmer, one of the things I try to do is build resources for topics related to audio programming and DSP that I wish I had when I was starting out. My aim is to empower digital musicians to "dig in" more and craft their own toys and tools for their work.
I also bake a lot. Expect many pictures of bread and croissants here, among other things.
๐น I loove #travel #vlog / #filmmaking / editing. Check out my Youtube at https://ash.ms/yt. Send me yours!
๐ต Also interested in #sustainability, #cycling, #retrocomputing & my CD collection (what's your fav album?)
Otherwise I love this part of the world & you'll probably find a lot of photos of moments I find beautiful around here. PS: ๐ฏ gay ๐ ๐ฆ
