Gay IT professional. Big ole geek with love of tech, music, scifi and fantasy (books and film/TV), and games (board and computer).
Been around the block many times when it comes to online communities (survived usenet and livejournal), hoping the Fediverse has some of that early internet community magic!
Expect toots about tech, gardening, TV shows, Warcraft, and photos of my cat and husband.

I’ve been on Mastodon a while and I think I’ve figured out how it will work for me. Time to make some changes and do a new #introduction.

I’m a heading towards 50, Oxfordshire born and bred, IT professional. I work in higher education (I’m sure you can take a guess at where I work).
Professional interests include
#virtualisation #networking #infosec

Personal interests are wide ranging - from the traditionally geeky (
#scifi #fantasy #gaming) to the traditionally middle aged #gardening and #cookery

How I plan to use Mastodon
I post photos (
#caturday and #gardening are mostly likely) and maybe some music links. I try and remember to use alt text,content warnings and hashtags - please don’t judge too harshly it I forget.
I follow people I know elsewhere and single topic accounts that interest me.
I also follow hashtags (
#florespondence #warcraft #gardening #caturday at the moment). If you like what I post, feel free to follow, but don’t be offended if I don’t follow back. I favourite and boost posts freely, but don’t reply much. Favourites and boosts gratefully accepted! 2/2
