Short description
A friendly place on the 'Net. Semi-personal, but users welcome. Run by a lion (everyone can be a lion on the Net). Tech, humor, furriness, kink, politics - you have it.
Long description
Okay, so what IS this place?

Social Paws is just a small server I have set up for myself but later decided to open it up to a wider audience. If you're a sensible person, you're probably welcome here.

What is considered cool here?

Be yourself. Don't be a pain in the tail. Respect other people. That's all, folks?

What is a total no-go?

Bigotry of any kind, hate speech, discrimination and such stuff is NOT wanted, nor tolerated here and will be swiftly dealt with. Sorry folks, this isn't your circus.

Also note that the owner of this server does NOT support, endorse or sponsor Russian invasion of Ukraine in any way. Any attempts to convince people on this server to do otherwise are subject to moderation. #StandWithUkraine

Bio
Total trash animal (not really but a lion 🦁). A huge 🖥️ geek. Into open-source, self-hosting and all that (obviously). Probably neurodivergent, but who cares.
