I really need to hang around here more often. So new #introductions are in order!
#helloworld I am Anma, I come from #quebec #canada and I work in #science #molecularbiology #psychiatry #genetics #epigenetics in #Montreal .
I will however probably be posting and re-tooting stuff about #videogames #indiegames #cats #art #ttrpgs #larp and other very geek hobbies.
I am looking to follow people who talk about cool science or cool games!
Hi! @anmaeriel
I’m from Québec as well and I’m into all the nerdy stuff! I’m here I mainly post about #floss and #cybersecurity but I’m down for video games 😀
@anmaeriel hahahahahahaha good question: Free/Libre Open Source Software AKA FOSS Free Open Source Software.
I suppose I’ve been in an echo chamber where this is used a lot lol.
@fssofdeath Thank you so much for explaining! This is really not my wheelhouse, but a friend and I have been trying to find alternatives to software we regularly use which would be free of big monopolies and personal info gathering... So I'm interested! I'm trying to de-Googlize my android phone as well, which is no easy task for someone who does not code. O.O
@anmaeriel no worries, it’s my pleasure. I couldn’t live with the cost of completely de-googling on Android so I moved to Apple. There’s a lot of good tutorials out there. I’m also active on Matrix in a Canadian channel: #lo_canada:mozilla.org
Lots of people interested in #FOSS who use various devices that have been de-googled. Come join us if you wish.
There’s a whole world of alternatives out there!
@fssofdeath Hello there! What's floss? Apart from the thing my dentist always tells me to use. 😅
