 I've had numerous different accounts over the last few years, but these are the currently active ones.

 ===== Instances =====
-Here are some links to help you pick your instance (give you an idea of what behaviour is expected, if there are any subject specialisations, etc). You will want to do more research into an instance before joining, because a lot are trash. It's now pretty easy to move your account between instances though.

+I've moved instance notes to the [[fediverse]] page.
-  * https://instances.social/list
-  * https://instances.noct.zone/ - supposed to feature instances with good admin policies, but doesn't really do a good job of that. For example witches.live and catgirl.science are not instance I would recommend.
