Nice. Should I join if I just do some digital archivism as a hobby, have no interest in pursuing it as a profession?
@0xf00fc7c8 Ooh that's a good question. That might be a better fit with digipres.club? Because folks there do have various convos about specific stuff and literally everyone who does that kind of work has fun passion projects (for better or worse in terms of boundaries) and then posts about those too. You would probably enjoy what @misty does, for example.
@platypus @0xf00fc7c8 I feel like I'm in a bit of weird state now myself, since I used to work in archives but don't anymore! Hard to tell where I do or don't belong.
@0xf00fc7c8 @platypus digipres.club does feel like it's been quite open to amateur digital preservation activities.
