As you may know we have launched our own community space dedicated to providing a safe and welcoming environment for autistic individuals. After a long journey of searching for a place to truly belong, I believe we have the opportunity to create something special together. Let's work towards building a community that is as inclusive and horizontally organized as possible, but we can't do it without your support.

Share your skills and ideas in the comments below, and if they align with our community values, we'll invite you to join our collaboration chat to discuss how you can contribute further. You can also help by staying active, spreading the word, and donating to keep our server running smoothly. Together, we can build a space where autistic people feel welcome and valued!

I'm currently working on a Master's of Science in Network Technology. I don't actually do much networking, though. I currently work professionally as Tier 1 support for a government agency.

Thanks for sharing ! Seems like this community is unmoderated anyway, maybe it should be closed?
