Hi all,
My name is Vinay, and I'm excited to be trying out social media after a gap of over a decade. I believe in the power of the unbridled, corporation-free internet to connect people and effect social change.
My long-term passions are: veganism for a cruelty-free, climate-friendly future, improving healthcare access in East Africa and beyond (I work for Maisha Meds), learning Spanish and supporting #OpenSource #FOSS projects. I also care about data privacy and transparency.
More broadly and in no particular order, I'm into homesteading, #permaculture, cycle touring, community-led projects, and queer rights.
As a peek into my life, here's a photo of this week's canasta (a local initiative that receives fresh organic veggies from a farmers' collective) here in #SanCristóbalDeLasCasas
@vinay Welcome back! Just ignore all the stupid that is conspiracy theories. Social media is rife with them. On Mastodon, none that I've found so quite safe.
