An #introduction for anyone #NewHere since it's been a minute.

I'm Dave Howcroft, a #queer #Catholic #ComputationalLinguist and #immigrant who likes to #sing and #goof around and run long distance (think #halfmarathon).

I have been fedicurious since 2018, but joined seriously in 2022 when enough of my birdsite folks moved over here to find it lively.

I recommend #Fedilab for using #Mastodon on Android and the #Elk web app for browser based usage unless you need extra settings only available on the official web interface for your server. If you are new, then write an intro, try some different apps,and follow @feditips (https://fedi.tips) to learn more about how this all works.

(Feel free to boost this if you think your followers might wanna meet me or follow me 😊)

For a proper #introduction:

I'm a #ComputationalLinguist by training doing #WritingResearch and #DigitalLinguistics by profession. Oh, and I do #DocumentEngineeing with a focus on #WritingTechnology on the side. I'm also interested in (and publish on and worked in) #DigitalTransformation in #HigherEd.

I live in #Lausanne (and #Zurich) and work as professor at the #ZHAW in #Winterthur.
