Wow. Third anniversary on the Fediverse - on the lovely @exquisiteExquisite.social community.

I am incredibly grateful to each and everyone whom I've ever interacted with. I think this does warrant a list :flan_hurrah:

  • @mischaMischa 🐑😎 - Emergency admin, trusted advisor, external decorum and awesome human being.
  • @rqmEK :a_openbsd: - Destroyer of disks, creator of the OpenBSDonApple wiki and a continuous inspiration to hack harder.
  • @stefanoStefano Marinelli - "The eternal smiling Italian", proper *BSD advocate and lovely hobbit kindred spirit.
  • @labellaragassaSophie - for being the second (active) person to join and being an advocate on accessibility and occasionally showing me a mirror.
  • @mnourNour :openbsd: - for being a true friend, inspiration of a proper beard and being a *BSD terrorist,
  • @thomholwerdaThom, United Europe πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Ί - for being the first true stress test of our innocuous community, eternal trolling and having the "balls" to join a BSD-minded instance as a systemd(umpsterfire) advocate,
  • @Banshee - the best effin designer, artist, cat mother and being an inspiration to see the light no matter how dark the times are,
  • @angie - for being your lovely self, growing a beard and becoming NourV2,
  • @dexterMichael Dexter - for being the ring person that binds the entire *BSD community, no matter the poison,
  • @latteraShawn Webb - for HardenedBSD, for your advocacy to human rights - you have meant more to me than I will ever be able to voice,
  • @romanzolotarevroman - for guidance, inspiration and your minimalist attitude. Sorry for this really unminimalist post,
  • @pluralisticCory Doctorow - for your continued words, publications, shared insights, they mean the world to me,
  • @mwlMichael Lucas :flan_set_fire: - for showing us all that there are deeper levels of pain and hurt to be endured. And for giving rats a voice - we aren't talking about the remote access trojan sort of 'em.

I am entirely sure that I am forgetting a boatload of people - including the bsd.network staff for having me and teaching me how a decent social network should be.

Whether I named you or not - my eternal love and love to you all :flan_heart:
