Hey there, fellow travellers!

I am thrilled to welcome each and every one of you to our small community. This "Introductions" thread is the perfect place to break the ice, share a bit about yourself, and get to know your fellow community members.

To kick things off, I'll start by introducing myself:

Name: kglitch
Location: New Zealand
Interests: computer things - linux, programming, webdev. Nature, Photography, Travel, History.
Favorite thing about this community: Being able to knock some of the rough edges of stock kbin

Now it's your turn! Don't be shy—feel free to share as much or as little about yourself as you're comfortable with. Here are a few ideas to get you started, but feel free to deviate from them if you'd like:

Name or Username: [Your preferred name or online handle]
Location: [Where you're from, or the place you currently call home]
Interests: [Tell us about your hobbies, activities, or any unique talents]
What brings you to this instance?
Anything else you'd like to share:

If you're not comfortable sharing personal information, that's perfectly fine. You can still participate by engaging with others, asking questions, or simply offering a warm welcome to newcomers. The goal is to build a strong and supportive community where everyone feels valued.

So, without further ado, let the introductions begin! I can't wait to get to know each and every one of you and see this thread come alive with our diverse and fascinating community.

Welcome aboard, and enjoy your time here!

Best regards,

KGlitch admin

Been watching kglitch for a bit and I was impressed with the changes made to the base code - love what you've done with the place. I'm curious to see if you have any insight into the SQL that drives the ActivityPub feeds - been thinking for a while about developing the ability for a user to choose which instances they publish to, but haven't had a chance to put up my own instance yet and dive in.

Hello fellow Bay Area nerd! I'm not much of a writer but otherwise our interests so overlap they're basically a sandwich.

I'm on kbin.social but just subscribed to get federation going, if it wasn't already. Good luck with the instance! How was it to setup and what's your hardware?
