Find Me

Turns out I’m all over the internet (in addition to being just, you know, all over the place.) Find me at the following services:

Mastodon: @ozhoopsdrek@mastodon.social My primary social media platform for now. It’s not perfect, but it can’t be summarily hijacked by a petulant billionaire on a whim. And if you don’t like your server, you can start your own.

Tumblr: @ozhoopsdrek. Tumblr seems to be headed for oblivion with reports that its owners are no longer actively building new features. But that account is still mine.

Twitch: @ozhoopsdrek The calendar on the front has details of my stream schedule. Otherwise just go over and hit Follow! I’ll be your friend…?

RSS: An RSS feed of all my posts is kept here.

YouTube: @ozhoopsdrek Apparently we can stream on multiple platforms at once now. So maybe I’ll give this a shot. As of November 2023 I don’t have any public videos up, though.

Patreon: @ozhoopsdrek Once I start doing stuff, maybe you can send me money! But only once I start doing stuff.

Facebook: @ozhoopsdrek Most of my Facebook stuff is friends-only, but if you get an invite or friend request and it’s not from that account, it’s not me.

BlueSky: @ozhoopsdrek.bsky.social New on BlueSky but we’ll see how it goes. Any other account is not me.

Twitter/X: @ozhoopsdrek While I’ve written a couple of articles summarising why it’s a really good time to quit Twitter and stop enabling its new owner, not everyone has that luxury; plus it remains a useful research tool while there’s still a critical mass of users there. Thus I’ve kept my account open… for now. Don’t expect me to post much, though.

If you want to look at my tweet history without giving their boss the precious engagement that he so desires, I’ve backed it up here. If you’re also bailing on Elon, you can download and back up your own Twitter archive using this tool.

Untappd – Ozhoopsdrek. I drink beer sometimes! So can you, if you’re old enough and you want to!

Telegram: I’m not on Telegram, and anyone contacting you on that platform claiming to be me is attempting to scam you.
