Hi there! I've been wanting to do this for a while, but felt that with the new year, now would be a good time to provide a resource list for those in the Eugene-Springfield area interested in the [fediverse](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fediverse), and looking for local posts. I'll be updating this as needed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Without further ado...

## Something not on this list?

|
|
|

|
|
That's probably because I wasn't aware of it. If you want something added to the list, please let me know and I'll add it assuming it's relevant to the Eugene-Springfield Fediverse.
