jonny (good kind)<p>Any <a href="https://neuromatch.social/tags/octodon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>octodon</span></a> ppl who need a place to move to, we are a cooperatively governed instance that is comfortably small, and while many of our members are academics in and near neuroscience, the purpose of the instance (imo, though as an equal cooperator it is not up to me alone to decide) is to use academic resources to make healthy communication systems, bringing researchers out of the ivory tower and into the commons, so non academics are very welcome. We do the best we can with thoughtful, fast, and participatory moderation to protect our members and be good neighbors in the fedi, and actively welcome members to hack alongside us on anything that makes the fedi safer, more legible, or in general a better place to be. We are a more public-oriented instance so we eg. dont have authorized fetch on at the moment, but we are opposed to mass surveillance and eg. dont federate with threads and block LLM crawlers. May not be a good fit for everyone, but if you are curious feel free to reach out :)</p><p>Our info is over here: <a href="https://wiki.neuromatch.social" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">wiki.neuromatch.social</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
