a more formal beehaw introduction thread (beehaw.org)

the big stickied thread is getting cluttered with lots of new people and the "how was your week" thread isn't a great fit for introductions, so it seems about time to make this a dedicated thread of its own so peoples' posts aren't getting lost.

tell us a little bit about yourself, folks. don't gotta be too specific or revealing, just whatever you want to put out there. this'll be a good way of getting to know all the people you're now on here with

Hey folks, NYC-based. Not a refugee of anything or anywhere. Just an ardent supporter of a decentralized internet.

Hey everyone, I'm based out of East Asia, but lived the majority of my life outside of my home country. I love technology, sports (playing, not watching), video games, reading, and music.

Also part of the reddit exodus crowd, and I'm glad to be here.

Another Reddit refugee here.

I'm Valliac, mid-thirties over on the east coast of the US.

I'm generally a videogaming and pro wrestling nerd. I stream videogames on twitch (same name), DJ as a hobby, and am overall sarcastic in most of my replies.

Hi there, Nice to meet everyone.

I go by GooseDwarf, I'm a tech enthusiast, who also enjoys video games, tabletop games, and reading SciFi and Fantasy. Like many others, I'm working on leaving Reddit, and after seeing people mention Lemmy, and seeing Beehaw at the top of the recommended, decided to give this community a try.

Hi all, another long-time reddit lurker moving over here. I'm wrapping up a CS program and have a couple python webapps I develop as a hobby. I'm generally interested in tech and sports -- huge soccer fan ⚽

I'll try to be more active here and contribute to the community, looking forward to chat with you all :)

Hi! I'm a humble cube (he / him). I'm a devops engineer. I was looking for a Lemmy home thanks to Redditacting and behaving the way they have been. I wanted an instance that didn't allow harmful propaganda to be propagated and this seemed like a good place

EDIT: haha didn't mean to reply to a comment rather than the thread. I'm leaving this as a testament to that I'm still learning this new platform
