Hello fellow humans. I’m actually from a different CA, California. But I’m a believer that you should choose an instance based upon the administration not on topic, and this one feels much more in line with my sensibilities than the other large ones. Sorry to stereotype, but the conversations feel kinder here than elsewhere (even by the already nice standards of lemmy instances overall.)

I don’t much like sharing personal type information online, so I hope you’ll forgive my brevity. I don’t work in tech, but have had a lifelong interest in it so I feel right at home here at the ground floor of a new community.
