#introduction #introductions #intro to help new #Mastodon & #Fediverse people - Free software/culture activist, as a social/ethical/political issue. I maintain the APT & RPM repositories of Linux-libre; the freedom-respecting version of the kernel named Linux; am the GNU Chief Webmaster (https://gnu.org); use Trisquel GNU/Linux, enjoy writing text adventure games & have some on https://jxself.org/git. Expect posts of any of these topics or whatever I'm thinking on or doing at the time.
I'm moving to https://mastodon.social/@jxself because my friend would like to stop maintaining this instance. You may want to un-follow this account and follow my new one. It appears that there's currently no functionality for moving my prior messages to the new instance, which I find sad.
Aaron Swartz died ten years ago today January 11, 2013. Let's all take a moment to remember him and all that he did. #RememberAaronSwartz

Ode to #cat: Thy sleek and graceful movements are a thing of beauty and finesse. Thou art a true master of the hunt, stalking thy prey with cunning grace.
Mastodon is breaking down walls, not building them up - decentralizing the internet. It's #SocialMediaDoneRight
