  1. @gamingonlinux A pair of mine:

    • Installed a copy of 7-Zip and checked on the language list to change the language to Spanish, there I discovered the existence of #Esperanto and #Idolinguo, now I'm a follower of #auxlangs in general
    • Found about Ubuntu from a kiosk in my college, nowadays I'm self-hosting the very server I'm replying from
  2. That reminds me! Since I moved from #Akkoma to #Firefish and had to switch subdomains, I think a new #introduction is in order!

    Hi, my name is Carlos Solís, from Costa Rica (or Rich Coast, for the Spanish-challenged in the audience
    😉). I'm a computer science graduate and have been working in the digital area for ten years now. I've been on the #FreeSoftware scene since my college days on and off for over ten years now, and in fact I've taken it so seriously, that this message has been posted from my #SelfHosted server in my own house in Santa Ana.

    My other interests include
    #Linguistics, especially #Auxlangs and #Conlangs (besides of my native Spanish, the related #RomanceLanguages such as Portuguese and Italian which I can sort of understand, and the bits of German and Japanese that I learned online, I also know the basics of #Esperanto and #Idolinguo, plus I've dabbled in more obscure languages such as #LingwaDePlaneta and #Uropi), #FreeCulture and #Copyleft works (though for historic reasons I've drifted away from some projects such as the SCP Foundation), #Accessibility / #A11Y (especially relevant since I work a lot on frontend online tools), and #Cybersecurity (again, relevant as I sometimes work full-stack).

    Pronouns if you need them: "He" is best, "they"/"it"/"one" are odd but understandable in context, "she" is very much a miss (pun a bit intended there!)

  6. Hi there! I'm Jessica (or Jess; she/her), and I'm a socialist & feminist living on Bunurong country in Melbourne, Australia. I have a politics-focused alt at @[email protected]; this account is my generalist main.

    I feel most productive when I #amwriting – I write speculative fiction, and have one main WIP I've been working on for years. Here you should also expect to see posts about #books, #cats and #dogs and magpies, technology (I'm into the #indieweb), #linguistics, TV and movies, and other stuff that strikes my fancy 😊

    My native language is English; at uni I studied Spanish and Catalan (my Spanish is stronger tho). I'm a bit of an idealist; I have an interest in #auxlangs, especially #Ido (and have a dedicated account at @[email protected] for that), and also in the phonetic #Shavian alphabet for English.

    Follow me if you like; boost my posts if you want; @'s are fine so long as you're not argumentative. Have a great day 😊 #introduction / #reintroduction
