the big stickied thread is getting cluttered with lots of new people and the "how was your week" thread isn't a great fit for introductions, so it seems about time to make this a dedicated thread of its own so peoples' posts aren't getting lost.

tell us a little bit about yourself, folks. don't gotta be too specific or revealing, just whatever you want to put out there. this'll be a good way of getting to know all the people you're now on here with

Hello all!

I'm Hazelnoot (she/they), a Software Developer from the USA. My main interests are Programming, Gaming (PC and TTRPGs), Anime, and Retrocomputing. I'm also proudly transgender and would love to connect with other LGBTQ+ people here!

I've got the usual story - decade Reddit user being driven out by API restrictions. In fact, this is actually my second time being pushed off a mainstream platform and onto the Fediverse. I previously left Twitter for Mastodon after Elon Musk took over and all moderation disappeared. I've been very interested in Lemmy as a replacement for Reddit, and I'm excited to be here on Beehaw!
