Hi folks, figured I should finally do an #introduction here!

I'm Ruth, she/her, based in the UK.

I work full time for #Acquia as Project Lead for @mautic - yes, I'm paid to work in #opensource - super awesome!

#Mautic is an Open Source #MarketingAutomation platform which allows you to do cool stuff across the digital experience - mautic.org.

Outside work I am a #musician (learning flute, piano & music theory), #buddhist #Vegan #Runner, and live with #EhlersDanlosSyndrome.

@alexstandiford I'm also thinking in broader terms, and curious about data for other projects, aggregated stats, etc. Like, which companies contribute back to open source as a whole? How does corporate contribution compare to individual contribution, etc.

Hey friends! What are your thoughts on measuring to open source projects? Is that a worthy pursuit? Is there a methodology that works well? I'm mostly only familiar with the credit system, but I am curious about these types of metrics in general.

@alexstandiford Sure, it’s RSS to Twitter. So you just connect your Twitter account and use the feed from your Mastodon profile. I’m considering adding a tag though, so not everything posts.

I’m using IFTTT to cross-post back to Twitter, but if you are considering diving into the fediverse, you can find me on social.Librem.one. Why? Because I trust @kylerankin and team more than most. 😁

Welcome to all the new folks in the #twittermigration and those returning. Remember, the #Fediverse is what you want it to be, not something a pushed at you. It's what YOU make it.

Also please don't forget that the instance you're on isn't run by a billionaire or even millionaire. They're normal folks like you or I that are doing this out of the kindness of their hearts and wallets. So don't forget to #tipyouradmin .

Finally @feditips and @FediFollows is a great place to start!

Welcome to all the new users fleeing the bird site. I think this article sums up Elon's hobson's choice right now. tl;dr it's not going to go well.

I’m enjoying reading the from this wave of , so here’s mine. I’m an Evangelist for and a nerdy podcaster on @reality2cast and FLOSS Weekly on @twitnews. I am also a Linux Journal alum and a huge fan of , the open web, user and privacy-respecting hardware and software, antique ceramics, and really good food and wine. Currently debating going back to roller derby for fitness and stress relief. 😂

Quick tip: if you camelCase your hashtags, people who use screen readers will have an easier time with them.

So, for example: #twitterMigration or #TwitterMigration instead of #twittermigration
