Say Hi and Introduce Yourself!

Hello I'm Draconic NEO
Hello everybody, I'm Draconic NEO, some people call me Draconic or NEO. I am Aromantic Asexual, and probably also Agender. I'm into open source and linux and am currently exploring the fediverse.
I joined blahaj.zone to start up some A-spec communties as I felt those are sorely lacking in the Fediverse. I chose this instance because it seems like the best place to host communities like that on the count of it being an LGBTQIA safe-space that doesn't tolerate bigots \glares at lemm.ee\ and also having downvotes disabled (useful since lots of bigots will downvote people simply for being openly queer). I initially avoided blahaj.zone since it was less stable in the past (I remember frequent downtimes and image errors) as well as concerns regarding egg_irl, as I have experienced a lot of unpleasant harassment Mostly in DMs from reddit.com/r/egg_irl (Was really nasty and I won't get into it here) however it seems like that isn't an issue here as people here seem very nice.
The communtities I have started are:
Feel free to join them if you are interested.

Hello everyone
I finally decided to make an account after lurking so long. Hi everyone. I'm a trans woman, 2-3 years into my transition, and during (and after) the process of figuring it out, I've written several poems, to try and get in touch with my feelings. I think now's a good time to share them, and I believe many people in here will relate to them as well. I was thinking of posting them from time to time to [email protected] unless someone else has a better idea.

Heyo! I'm Lilith :3
Hiii gay people in my phone! Decided to introduce myself here, since I really like the place so far :3
So, nice to meet you, I'm Lilith ^^
I'm 21 and live in Germany. A few months ago my egg cracked, so I use she/her now. At the moment I study physics, but I'm also interested in IT (and cyber security, but I know way less about that than I'd like to), politics and TTRPGs. So far, so cookie-cutter trans girl, right?
Well, the revolution will be won in thigh highs, and if the quickest way to get those is to install Arch, who am I to complain. I initially found this instance through !c/196, since I've been lurking on r/196 for a few years now (and breaking the rule numerous times >:3), but I deleted my r\*ddit account a good bit ago, and never looked back. I've since discovered the fediverse, and I really like how quaint it is here. Being able to catch up on all posts, and quickly recognizing users is really cool!
Some other random facts about me:
- I've recently got into freediving and just broke four minutes :D
- I'm biromantic, but still figuring out where I sit on the ace/bi spectrum
- I've been doing some organizing and direct action for climate protests for years now, and got arrested by the cops a few times
- In my activism I decided to go vegan, but since then it's not about the climate anymore, I just like animals too much <3
- Lilith isn't actually my name, but I don't want everyone on the internet know my real name :P
Happy to be here, and I'm looking forward to that will become of this place. Decentralized internet is here to stay!

Hi, I'm Franzia
Haiiii :3 I'm Franzia. I was brought to the Blahaj Zone by the Vaush community, [email protected] - the Vaush community on discord has been wildly accepting and helpful so I hope our little Lemmy community can also succeed. My whole life I've been entertained by politics, so it feels natural, but I've recently dipped my toes into direct action. I've actually disliked social media so much that I've rarely used it for my entire life, except discord, which I'm pretty frustrated about using. So I find the movement to remove corporations from social media intriguing! I want to be on not only Lemmy, but as many Fediverse apps as suits my need to shitpost trans memes, vent about life frustrations, and I guess find some sense of community in this deeply lonely world.
I'm a 26 year old trans female living in the US. I've identified as Pansexual since I was a teen. When I was a teen in the skinniest jeans in the school, had medium-length straightened hair that covered at least one eye, and got called the f-slur daily. I'm Pre-HRT, and living with my Mom, in a pretty rural location. Her house has received a ton of messy renovation this year and I'm making myself busy cleaning it up and making the house work alright again. Mom is handicapped and awaiting surgery, pretty soon I won't need to lend her quite as much help. After ten years of sitting at home being a NEET MMO gamer and repressing my female identity, I feel stuck in this situation for another few months. It's too easy to catastrophize, but I'll be living a whole and well-rounded life maybe next year or the year after that. I'm not getting any younger, it's time to stop living so wrong. I'm sort of... dressing loudly day to day, but not trying to 'pass' as female.
My taste in things is so fucked. My favorite music is Gabber, my fashion sense might as well be Clowncore, I'll try anything twice, I prefer my humor deep fried. I watch an ungodly amount of YouTube. I used to be addicted to Twitch.TV and refuse to watch it now, I'm clean. In conversation I like to make a lot of noises, I have a huge vocabulary of silly noises.
I really like this Lemmy instance and these communities, and I relate to so many of you. It's just... fresh air. Like I'm in a meadow full of people who are all noticing the same type of flower and unanimously deciding that this flower is the best one. We have so many similiar quirks, preferences, and stories.

Hi, everyone!
I’m Funbreaker (but you can also call me Nicole) I’m a lateđiagnosed autistic cis woman and am interested in primarily technology, conlanging, and cats but also whatever else my brain likes at any time. I’m been on the fediverse for about 6 years now and watching it continue to evolve is great .

Hello all!
Hi, I'm in my thirties, am a queer nonbinary person who uses they/them pronouns, and am a science fiction writer. I also write Korrasami fiction for Legend of Korra fandom.
I also enjoy drawing my own maps, crafting conlangs, worldbuilding, drawing, composing music, and hanging with my very fluffy cat, Quark. I also love physics, astronomy, linguistics, and really any science.

hello
i'm 22, genderfluid, bi, and transfem. i haven't used reddit much in 5 years but i decided to make an account here because i always figured reddit would actually be a pretty nice website if it didn't kinda suck. i like linguistics, maps, birds, and comics, particularly queer and indie comics. (btw does anyone know if there are any communities for discussion of comics rather than just posting comics?) the only other social media i use these days is cohost (@ceci)

Hi everyone!
I'm Tony. I'm a 48 year old gay man and my pronouns are he / him. I joined this instance because it looks like the right place for me! I tend to be gregarious and love meeting new people, so don't be a stranger!

hemlo
I'm a bisexual guy(?) from Italy. Any pronouns Interested in programming I love frogs, d&d and a way too big variety of games.

wow hi!
hi! I'm Bloob. I lurk but I wanted to say hi and get out of my comfort zone. I lurked on reddit and I reblog on tumblr, so I'd say my social media life is fairly passive.
I have a (quiet) calckey account on blahaj.zone and was hoping to try their kbin, but that's taking some time, so lemmy it is for now. worth a try!
!blobhaj, ani, hearts, animated !blobhaj, progress, flag, intersex, right

Hello, I'm Lilly!
Hello, I'm Lilly. I'm an 18 year old from Turkey. I have ADHD & am autistic. I am particularly interested in EEE/ECE, programming, and linguistics. I recently joined Lemmy, though I'd heard about it a few months back. I'm a Reddit refugee on here, though I've been on Tumblr as well for a while (3+ years but been seriously active for less than a year) now. Just wanted to say hi, and I hope I enjoy this community and Lemmy in general!

Another transmasc has entered the chat!
Howdy y'all,
Non-binary bisexual transmasculine person popping on in!
I'm from Louisiana, currently living in Minnesota, moving to Pennsylvania at some point.
I learned about Lemmy from a Mac tonight discord community. I know some people aren't familiar with how Mac tonight has been reclaimed as a vaporwave icon, and I'm a strong believer in not letting fascist have good things.
In the meantime, I'm a homeless traveling socialist, spreading the word of communism through my own mutual aid efforts.
I would be a gamer if all of my money didn't go to cannabis. It's pretty much my personality, at this point. I quit drinking about 7 months ago, and haven't had a drink since. I've been drinking since I was a teenager, so this means a lot to me. I didn't quit because of any major problems or legal trouble. I just decided to quit one day, and haven't drank since.
I never got into Reddit, but then I learned about how they shut down third-party apps, so I came over here. I tried to do Reddit but I couldn't post without any karma, so it was useless to me. I will happily help spread the word of Lemmy, to get people that are unfamiliar into the febiverse! I'm mostly on Mastodon, but I like to spread out. I feel like Mastodon does well because it has an app. If the rest of the fetty verse could just get on board with getting an app that would be great! I also just recently left Twitter (again), and I left right before they let their contract with Google expire, and they limited tweets. I left because Elon Musk added cis and cisgender to the slur list.
That's all I had for now, but if anybody has any questions I'm an open book! I love hanging out and making virtual friends!

Hello hi and such
I am Tumblr user waspsinyouryard. I can't imagine I'll be too active on this site but I'll be around in case a Tumblr screenshot features me or something.
-
Sup!
I'm a Tans Pan Girl who's a little ENBY but still she/her. Obligatory I like programming, D&D, and MTG.
I made the transition (heh) from Reddit and it's been surprisingly smooth. I initially set up base in Sh.itjust.works but after seeing 196 and SapphicArt (please post more there) I moved to Blahaj.
I was worried there wouldn't be enough content or gay energy for my 12 hour work day but the 196 rule is ingenious for quickly populating a social network.

Hello!
Hi everyone, I'm yessikg! I'm aro and my pronouns are she/her. I was introduced to the 196 community on Tumblr and I liked the vibes so here I am.
-
Greetings!
I'm Jakub, from Poland. 31 yrs old male, pronounced by he/him. Straight, but very frigid. Also I'm in autism spectrum (Asperger Syndrome). I'm looking forward to meet new people :)

It's a me!
Hi all. I thought I might try and get the ball rolling with an introduction
I'm Ada, and whilst I'm not a moderator in this community, I am an admin for lemmy.blahaj.zone, which where this group is hosted.
I'm rapidly closing in on 50 years of age, though I'm not quite there yet. I transitioned in 2017 when I was 41. I've got a non binary kiddo who has just officially reached adulthood themselves, which makes me feel really old.
My partner and co-admin is @[email protected]/@[email protected], who, believe it or not, I met via reddit (may it rest in peace)
Photo description: A selfie of Ada, a white woman in her 40s. She is wearing makeup, and has styled dark curly hair and is wearing a sparkly blue/green dress. The background is greenery from a garden
Photo description: A selfie of Ada and Kaity, two white women in their 40s, sitting on a couch. They are both looking in to the camera, but their heads are leaning to touch each other, and both are smiling. Kaity is wearing a sparkly purple dress, and Ada is wearing a matching dress in blue/green

Hello (& Second!)
Hi, I'm Cevilia, or Cev, or Lia, or "Oi You!". You may use she, they, or any pronoun to refer to me.
I’m from the UK. I'm 38 and becoming less certain of my gender with each passing day.
I enjoy gaming, chatting, hanging out, and finding out I'm wrong - after all, it's the best way to learn new things! :)
