What can I say that isn't in my little bio already, or in the "About me" page of my little website?

I'm soon-to-be 30 years old, I live between fRance, Switzerland and Germany. I'm sadly still in multiple french police files due to my radical activism from a few years back.

I tend to report, block bigots at first sight and have zero tolerance against racism. But I believe I can be a friendly internet neighbour and your follow requests are always welcome! 👋🏻

Hello!

I wanted for some time to join a somewhat big #Mastodon instance not hosted in Europe. I recently found a friend who made their fediverse home here so I decided to apply for an account and migrate.

After 8 years spent on Mastodon, I know the limits of the #fediverse quite well and I'm pretty cynical about it, but I think it's still important such spaces exist.

For those who don't know me already, please see the following post!

i had to create a new account, so here we go again with an #introduction funny #introductions (yay)...

henlo everyone! i'm JeDaYoshi (or Nay, usually on IRC), a hyperfixated developer that spends a lot of time fiddling around with anything that catches my interest, whether it is real-time media streaming/communication, networking, general sysadmin stuff, or anything else that's fun. i also have interests in music and animation.

been a lurker on fedi (and social media in general) for a long time, but I'm looking towards sharing more about the things i run into at my little personal space!

Since this is a new account (not really but, you know) I would like to do a re-introduction.

I'm Josh the person behind the 2TonWaffle community as well as Indie Creator Hub. I've always loved to play what many consider to be classic games now but, I do the occasional FPS or looter shooter.

My goal in life is to help others find alternative platforms for live streaming, video hosting, and community building. Whether through videos or blog posts, I only want to see you succeed. #introduction

You all know me by now. I am the infamous instance hopper.

I know I piss people off on here but it's all fun 😊.

I love open source platforms and decentralized platforms like #mastodon

I love tech way too much and I'm a huge music fan.

@scottkiss Welcome to the fediverse, Scott! I recommend tooting a few more photos or tooting about things that interest you and then redrafting your introduction toot to include the hashtag #introduction . That way people who follow that hashtag will welcome you and often retoot your toot! Also, please consider writing more detailed alt-text so our low-sight and blind friends may enjoy your photos as well. You can find more fediverse tips here @FediTips and here fedi.tips/

Part 2 of my introduction. I want you to know what you are getting into choosing to stick around.

I know, the dolls I make are not for everyone. I've seen a lot of confusion and even fear in the eyes of those looking at my dolls. I've also received plenty of compliments and there are a few people who collect my dolls. The biggest collection of my dolls lives in Germany with a witch who collects dolls made in the image of a witch, mythical creatures and goddesses. She currently owns about 100 of my dolls (and more made by other artists).

To be honest, it's the people who own my dolls who have opened my eyes to a doll as an important part of personal self-development and powerful vessel in spiritual practices. I knew nothing about it when I started. They are rarely just a decoration. Mostly they serve as companions, affirmations, expressions of the self and vessels of thought. And I love to talk about it all too. This is the vibe in my SiltiCrafts Witch Town. Yeah, I have a name for that mental space they come from and arrive to - it's Witch Town (although not all of them are witches).

Hi! 👋 I just joined, and while I figure this out, let me tell you a bit about me.

I'm a maker of dolls inspired by nature, folklore, labyrints of myth, mind and magic. My dolls are mostly witches, and when they leave my home, they often become altar dolls. It's been a weird and interesting journey of doll making for the past 7 years, 600+ dolls now live in homes and collections around the world.

Besides crafting dolls I'm into permaculture, paganism, self-sufficiency, foraging and neverending self-development. I'm a forest dweller, mushroom hunter, food grower and herb lover deep in the countryside in Latvia (North-Eastern Europe). All of that I might occasionally share here. I would love to connect with like-minded people, so, if you're here, say 'hi'! I hope you are somewhere here...
