-scuttlebutt
+scuttlebutt has been drawn my attention for a long time now 
 
-peachcloud 
+I first joined after seeing a presentation by @zelf at radical networks in berlin in 2018, 
+here is [the introductory post I made then](https://viewer.scuttlebot.io/%25p%2FUkTc1Q2ZpH3mVw%2BPxbfOiBD8gGjj4O9MCsVQ0Nf%2F8%3D.sha256)
+
+strange that so much has happened since then, 
+but in many ways my interests are also mostly the same 
+
+since then I've met dozens of people from scuttlebutt, 
+including [@lando](ssb://@cnLKkzXHWFfPa2c4N74pMKCpw6Gmp1vnydEF4qlZsTE=.ed25519) who I started [kiezpilz](http://kiezpilz.de) with, 
+as well as [@glyph](http://mycelial.technology) who I've worked on peachcloud with and learned a lot of mycology from 
+
+at times it feels like a global network of activists to me, 
+much of which consists of long periods of durational devotional work typing at home, 
+as well as experiments in alternative ways of living, 
+with occasional moments of meeting up in person 
+
+it also sometimes feels  like a religious community to me, in a nice way 
+
+I don't feel like trying to totally describe what it is, 
+or be completely utopian or pessimistic about it
+
+I imagine this is another feeling I share in common with members of other religious communities 
+
+my participation in the community has consisted of: 
+- hosting various butts on my couch when they were travelling through berlin 
+- attending [solpunk](posts/solpunk) in 2021 
+- working on peachcloud with @glyph for two years 
+- posting about various things on scuttlebutt and talking with other butts  
+- creating
