I'm a German web developer mostly living the rural life in Spain, growing vegetables and making #OliveOil, while surrounded by #chickens and #goats, but I also spend some time back home in deepest Bavaria each year.
Before that I lived in the UK for 23 years, studying #SoundEngineering, working at and then running a #CommunityRadio station and volunteering at a #CSA (community-supported agriculture) project 1/2
Can we give a shout-out to out awesome #fosstodon admins who keep it running 24/7 and allows me to have a good social media experience in the age of enshittification?

Obligatory yearly toot about #FOSS so I can stay on #Fosstodon 🎉
I saw the other day that German state Schleswig-Holstein is going to switch to fully #FOSS. Which is great and hope it works out for them.
Having set up a fully (F)OSS (desktops, apps, servers, etc) IT env for a large non-profit, might I suggest proper enterprise support instead of a lone coffee-addicted sysadmin who tries to keep systems together with hopes, prayers and duct tape? 🥲
@mike@kev is there a discussion or post or something somewhere about the official #Fosstodon#Threads position?
I know there was an announcement about it like 9 months ago when it was first announced, but my searches of the website and those hashtags hasn't turned up anything yet.
Things seem to be integrating now because I just saw a threads user on my feed and replied to them. Not surprisingly my post hasn't shown up on threads.com yet.
Hundreds of thousands of children die every year from malaria. As I’ve noticed a renewed interest in the welfare of children dying prematurely, I figured I’d share one of my favorite charities working to help eradicate malaria around the world: https://www.malariaconsortium.org/
Someone on #Fosstodon please retoot this so it shows up in general #FOSS feeds - why is the Apache secretary someone who openly supports mass murder of children?
OK, so I officially registered #Fosstodon on libera.chat. I'm going to be occasionally dropping in there (don't expect @kev though). If you're wanting to chat, that's where I'll be (but not all the time). Anybody is welcome!
My primary Mastodon instance is iosdev.space, and I try to keep my posts aligned with that community.
However, I still occasionally put random thoughts not about iOS development on Twitter / X.
I feel like I could use this instance a little better.
I do like that #Fosstodon seems to be running a slightly different version of the web UI, but I dont know enough about the underpinnings to dive deeper.
