I'm new around these parts.
I'm a mid 20s woman from Denmark 🇩🇰
Mostly lurking but will be posting my random thoughts, #tech, #fashion, whenever I do any #travel, and whenever I do something around the web.
I'm also the (currently only blind) software engineer @bemyeyes
Looking forward to chat with you all around these parts

⚫️ Do a risk assessment on whether kids might access the content, or if CSAM or terrorist material might be posted in the comments
⚫️ Put themselves at the risk of fines, and even prison sentences, if they fail to comply with Ofcom’s future directives

Volunteer and/or donate if you can.
Let’s send Codeberg’s membership through the roof and show these fucking fascists that when they push we push back twice as hard.
When you do, please add your voice to this thread so others can see.
I rarely ask this but please repost this far and wide.
