I am b9AcE

I am currently officially on:
• Signal: Ask for contact info.
   Do not just guess usernames on those two,
   because then you'll get blocked if you find it.
• Last.fm, music listening log: b9AcE

Registered, but not using (yet?):
• Bluesky, shortform text: @b9ace.org

I used to be on:
• Mastodon, fediverse, short(ish)form text: @[email protected]
   Until 2026-05-06, when I decided to leave because the level of
   unidirectionality, inactive consumption in response to being informed of horrendous acts,
   and the level of toxicity for personal clout, etc, had finally made it inefficacious for activism and unbearable.
• Mastodon, backup account, in case @[email protected] became unavailable: @[email protected]
   See previous.
• NoBlogs, WordPress, longform text: b9AcE
   Platform declared terrorist by Trumpist USA 2026-08-26,
   for being leftist and publishing anti-fascist texts, so shut down.
• Twitter: @b9AcE since February 2009.
   Until it was killed by Elon Musk.
   Now self-deleted due to having ethical principles.
• Mastodon, fediverse: @[email protected] and before that
   StatusNet/GNU social, fediverse: @[email protected] since September 2014.
   Those instances died by admins' decisions.
   Also, been on diaspora* and identi.ca and some other place which was
   super-important at the time but so long ago, we can forget about them.
• Before that I was on MySpace, back when it was very widely used.
   I used to use the personal status-feature there to share and comment on news,
   like I do on Mastodon now but ephemeral (those had no history saved, at all).
Before that, places like GeoCities and IRC since spring of 1994... probably irrelevant here.

Oh, also, because people requested it and in accordance with two 100% consensus polls on Mastodon,
I also accept donations, but only anonymized and without any reciprocation at Liberapay,
or if for some reason you don't want to use that, there is also Ko-fi, but then I ask you to anonymize yourself.

This website is made with my bare hands in the text editor vi and checked using my visually impaired ayes.
It probably works, in Lynx and fancier web browsers.
