We just made it past 1000 signups this morning. Nearly everyone joining had very thoughtful and meaningful explanations of why they want to try using this instance. It is an amazing time for the internet and we truly appreciate SDF being a part of this.

Hi SDF! I write programming books, teach programming, and have fun hacking on stuff.

Hi all, I am an OpenBSD ports maintainer, and hopefully at some point kernel hacker

A comment.

Hello SDF and thanks for hosting Lemmy and Mastodon instances👍

Hello. Just joined myself.

Hey, everyone! I’m Doug Anger / daanger. I’ve been on SDF for awhile. I’ll likely be a bit quiet here for awhile as I’m working on a master’s thesis, but I’m excited to get better acquainted with more of the community.

Hello, everyone!

I am a software engineer and consultant. I started out working in Assembly and Fortran, which will give you some idea of how long I’ve been around… These days I work for a company that provides internet solutions to non-profits. I love working with people who are trying to make the world a better place.

I have always been a gadget geek and have unreasonably large collections of multitools, knives, flashlights, pens, and similar things. I also know more about things like metallurgy, LED technologies, and ink chemistry than I have any need for, but it all keeps me entertained.

Ultimately, I like people. I’m something of an introvert, which makes it harder for me to make contacts, but I really enjoy talking with people. The extreme polarization of views we have at the moment is deeply disturbing to me, but I am trying hard not to hate the extremists as people, even while working to repair all the damage they are doing. I still believe that we have more in common than we do differences.

reddit was my primary online community for well over a decade. Now that I no longer want to be there I’m grateful that SDF is helping to provide a better venue. And I appreciate the rest of you for providing a friendly community.

Trigger Warnings: depression, substance abuse, suicidal thoughts

Reader discretion is advised.

Hi! I’m Marvin (well here I am Marvin, most people know me under different names), named after a depressed Robot with an immense intellect. I didn’t choose the name because of my intellect…

I’m getting paid pretty badly for being a sysadmin (but I don’t deal with glasspanes or fruits. Only penguins).

In my free time I sometimes code (mostly python, some webdev stuff, sometimes a little bit Rust), once in a blue moon strum some things on my guitar,go climbing, do some shitty woodworking and loads of other stuff. I think I might have ADHD because it’s hard for me to focus on most things and my interest in stuff quickly dwindles. That’s why I have loads of unfinished projects or ideas lying around.

I love metal music.

I’m pretty shy and suffer from social anxiety. I’ve been single most of my life and am kind of a loner.

The two times I’ve been in relationships were pretty abusive and left me yearning for death, a feeling I had throughout most of my childhood. I think talking to people I find attractive was hard before all that but it feels like nowadays it’s impossible. Also I have no clue how to tell if someone is interested in me. I never was. Only in hindsight.

I’m pretty lonely but too scared to do anything about it.

I’ve been clean and sober for almost 6 years now. Which doesn’t help in getting to know people. I know was way more talkative and outgoing when I drank. But I could never stop when I started.

Im in my midthirties and to be honest I still feel like the last years of school were the best time of my life.

I’ve been through a lot of therapy, which helped me a lot with my confidence and to deal with my thoughts and feelings. I’m a lot better than I’ve.been most of my life but life still sucks most of the time.

Here is something I could never tell anybody IRL: even though my life is pretty good right now and I have not had any suicidal thoughts in a long time I am pretty sure that I will be the one to end my life. It won’t be in the forseeable future but I can’t see myself getting old on this rotten planet with so many rotten peaople.

Sorry to be such a downer but it feels great to be honest. And that’s something that is really hard for me. Especially to people I care about and that includes myself :)

Hope you all are living your best life out there!

And as some pretty awesome musicians said: Rock on! And be excellent to each other!

Hi @SDF, I’m peron, a SDF user from #Argentina.

I’m an individual interested in historical operating systems, synthesizers, anonymity-respecting communities and cooperative electronic communication environments.

I certainly enjoy login into public machines, and meeting new friendly people. SDF provides a nice suite of free-access federated services, including its Mastodon instances, PixelFed and now Lemmy. Greetings to all my friends and kind people on the Telematic Fortress.

If anyone is interested in knowing a bit more about me, you can check this pseudoanonymous bio webpage. http://peron.sdf.org/whoami/

Hi! I’m a developer (mainly backend, but studying system programming and happily tinkering after work). I’m considering closing my accounts on centralised social networks for good. I’ve tried mastodon and nostr, but the microblogging format is not something I particularly enjoy. I’m also setting up my capsule in the gemini space and trying out gopher as well. Happy to connect there as well if anybody is interested :) You’ll find me commenting/reading on lobste.rs as well.
