Hello #Mastodon! I am making the jump from X to here. Too many of my #science and #medicine buddies left X. If you switched from X, how do you like it here? #introductions
#introductions We cobbled together a free-to-use dialup ISP out of trash and spare parts. dialup.world is composed of four modems for simultaneous connections delivering speeds up to 33.6K.
This is currently a bunch of USR Sportsters hooked into Linux, but we are currently working on setups with Cisco gear, as well as some musings in 56K, other weird dialup appliances, and retro networking.
We also supply dialup access to the WebTV Redialed project (http://webtv.zone/) which means if you dig your WebTV out of storage and hook it into a phone line, it just works with no modification needed on your part!
I invite you to watch our bad ideas become reality.
I'm Simon Tatham, free software developer based in Cambridge, UK. Best known for PuTTY and a collection of puzzle games; various other things largish and smaller. Mostly tend to start my own projects rather than joining existing ones. (I think just because that's my idea of fun.)
This is my first time dipping my toe into short-form social media. (I was never on the birdsite.) Probably expecting to post random tech musings, with occasional maths.
After reading many posts after the #introductions and some of the frustrations of people leaving Mastodon, one of the leading reasons was access to journalists. I've taken @tchambers 's journalist tracker google doc and converted it to the simple followers import format. Edit your profile, select Import/Export->Import, and upload to directly add 1000+ journalists. File here:

As I understand it once you create a Mastadon Account you are supposed to Introduce yourself. So here it goes; I am Carolyn, I am an illustrator who constantly fails at social media, and I love drawing characters that I created for my kids.
I write a good news blog/newsletter for my sanity, and I love coffee.
I'm Dan (he/they), I live in Hamilton Ontario Canada aka #HamOnt and this is my woodworking account on the Fedi.
Mostly doing veneer marquetry lately, and sometimes I also do things like #spoon carving, sculpture, wooden #boxes, small furniture, housewares, or random things like acoustic wall treatments.
Looking forward to making more wood & art friends here. Here's a small sampling of my work; loads more at bellowingtimber.com.

Hello Mastodon! I'm Meghan, a reporter at @gbhnews, Boston's local NPR station. I do a little bit of everything, including reporting on #disability and accessibility. Looking forward to connecting with people here. #introduction#introductions#gbhnews
Hi, I'm Laura and I study #pollen, reconstructing prehistoric #landscapes, using #FT-IR #microspectroscopy to identify grass pollen and also enjoy using different coding languages such as #R and #Python ^.^
My hobbies include #DJ ing, watching #anime and collecting #Pokemon cards (thrilling I know). Very happy to be here :3
I'm informed it's the done thing to have an #introductions post on Mastodon.
I've been on Twitter (https://twitter.com/urban_formation) for over a decade, where I've had some amazing conversations ranging from urbanism, mapping, to baking and books with some wonderful people.
For now I'll be cross-posting, testing out these hopefully less polluted waters, to see how it goes.
Hey its Jaden. I did a dumb ass thing and deleted my old account fo a bet. Yep I was drunk 🥴 I really regret it now what tf did I do 😫.
Hope I can find y'all that I followed before 🙏🏿
Preciate if yall could boost this so I can find y'all again.
Love Jaden ❤️ #introduction#introductions

#introductions Hi! 👋 I'm John and I'm an academic #librarian in #LosAngeles where I head up my library's outreach and engagement team. I've been working in libraries for about 15 years.
I love spending time #gardening, listening to podcasts, wine tasting (read: drinking), reading, and being with my family.
We might buy a piano soon.
I was an avid user of the bird site since 2007 but stopped posting over a year ago. I miss the community of library folk I found there. 😢
Reason I joined dis app was to connect with a diverse range of people.

Howdy! New to this whole Mastodon thing (I'm not even sure what instance I should be on) but eager. Name's Bug — I'm a queer master's student in an entomology lab, passionate about scientific outreach.
When I’m not staring at insects, I spend my time creating zines, comics, other art, and playing D&D. I want to learn how to make video games. Let’s connect if you think little critters are cool!
