2020-02-09 Welcome updated 2023-11-12 Welcome to ZLG's Zaibatsu Pod. My participation at the Zaibatsu is mostly through this Gopher hole. I have poked around the BBS and schat but not much else. The Fediverse is growing, so I am seeking communities connected to the zaibatsu and other pubnixes, as well as free software, community-ware, and other non-commercial computing. ActivityPub isn't exactly my favorite protocol but if it works... Direct mail over Circumlunar is more than welcome. For anyone outside of Circumlunar Space, please visit my terrestrial Internet site: https://zlg.space gopher://zlg.space/1/ There, I practice digital self-sufficiency by managing all of the data services that I use. It is the primary portal of my public activity on Earth, and where I practice what I preach regarding software and control over one's data. This space was originally to give me a place to put thoughts during a time in life where it was difficult to self-publish. Today, it's a portal to find me elsewhere, and to highlight my activity within this pubnix, when such a time comes. It will be some time before I understand where I can do good here. --- Due to real life circumstances, I am less active on the Zaibatsu. I still hop on a few times a month to read the BBS and try to stay up on things, but I'm spread like butter on hot toast right now, and barely have enough butter for myself. I'll pop in when I get the chance. In the words of Satoru Iwata, "Please understand." Thanks for visiting, -z
