Can we have a kbin census?

Apologies if I missed one that has already been held. But I saw a member census of beehaw, which was really interesting. I'm not suggesting gathering of any personally identifying info, but more generally getting a sense of who is here on kbin.

  • Magic skeleton covered in meat and powered by lightening. The connection between the world inside my skull and other's worlds is very hindered by my inadequate usage of my meat-flaps. If I could get my meat flaps to work better perhaps I could share my inside world more accurately

    • lightening

      Shine bright my friend

    • Magic skeleton is great, reminds me of:

      You’re a ghost driving a meat-coated skeleton made from stardust; what do you have to be scared of?

    • I am a meat popsicle

  • Cis-male, heterosexual, sexually defiant meat-popsicle on drugs and playing video games, checking in.

    Edit: Meant deviant, not defiant. I mean i guess either works, but the intent was more of a "Eh $20 is $20" deal.

    • Hah nice to meet you! I was thinking more of an anonymised questionnaire, not sure how or who would do it. Also not sure how beehaw held theirs?

    • That's a long-ass name.

    • Damn, dude captured 50% of the server demographic right there with one sentence.
      If you'd also said you had posted this using GNU/Linux, it would have been 100%

  • 41-year-old cisgender female pagan who is still working on her introduction for Mastodon since last fall and so isn't well, great at answering census still.

    • Nice to meet you! Not sure if you were part of witches vs patriarchy on reddit but I miss that subreddit.
      Never used mastodon, starting to think I should make an account as I've abandoned dmy twitter

  • I'm a tech tinkerer by nature, mostly in software and networking respects.

    I'm interested in InfoSec and OSINT, both of which in turn led to an interest in note-taking (personal knowledge management).

    Politically and spiritually, I subscribe to some of Rudolf Steiner's ideas such as Anthroposophy and social threefolding, albeit with a self-styled modern and secular approach to both. I don't agree with the downright quackery and other dodgy stuff he preached, but it was the early 20th century/post-WW1 and mysticism was all the rage I suppose.

    Also, the Nordic model is pretty cool.

  • I think people's interests/hobbies are much more interesting than there gender/country etc. Like:

    I'm American, I like Aquariums, "Pro" Wrestling, NASCAR, veggie gardening, Jesus, and a plethora of other things. On politics, I skew center and I know a lot of people on these platforms hate that, but as Popeye says, I yam what I yam.

    Are you a dog person or cat person?
    Do you think video games are too violent?
    Do you believe in alternative medicine?
    Toilet seat up or down?
    Do you like beans?

    Dog
    No, parents should just learn how to be damn parents and monitor what their kids do.
    Not really, I'll try it but I don't think it works very well.
    Toilet seat all the way down, seat and lid.
    Depends on the beans, I mean there are a hundred or more types.

    For example, in real life I don't think I've ever heard anyone express the opinion that it's acceptable for the general public to own and carry firearms in their day-to-day life

    This post was right, it's an American thing, and sure not all Americans, but for some of us to get a license to carry we have to have a photo taken, our fingerprints taken, and pay a fee every year.

    TP fold vs. scrunch.
    Both socks first, or one sock one shoe at a time.
    Shirt buttoned from the top or bottom.
    Innie or outie.

    Fold, you scrunchers are using too much paper and that's environmentally bad. Get a bidet everyone.
    Socks first, then shoes.
    You should button it from the top.
    Innie

    Is your homepage /sub or /all?
    Is this your first Fediverse site?
    What theme do you use?
    Do you prefer app, desktop or mobile site?
    What deadly sin do you think should get a pass?

    I tried all, but it was full of the same thing from a dozen different instances, so I switched to sub.
    No, I tried Diaspora for a while, and if I remember that was some form of fediverse.
    I'm rocking Toykyo theme right now, but usually dark.
    Desktop. Desktop is the superior experience for most things, you can't change my mind.

  • I am the very model of a modern Major-General. I've information vegetable, animal, and mineral. I know the kings of England, and I quote the fights historical, from Marathon to Waterloo, in order categorical.

  • Hey! I'm a 23 year old trans woman. Mostly here for talking about videogames, game dev, music and being queer. :)

    • There's an /m/GirlGamer group here. A bit quiet right now, but I post in it at times.

      • Oh cool I didn't know! That was always such a nice community on reddit ^^
