I'm just setting up here from the former bird app. I hope to find a good community here to share with and learn from. My big interests are Archaeology, Heritage, and digital tools/methods in these areas, but I'm also interested in neurodiversity, faith, and much more.10 Sep 2023 22:13 +0000at://did:plc:rzfwfzkffhlvspdptr3ocinn/app.bsky.feed.post/3k7345efecu2n
