Where do the #lowtech and #NeoLuddites hang out?
-
Few suggestions:
@theantlady (participates in the "bike night" group so she's a connection to all of that)
@pjf
@smellsofbikes
@luke
BikeSmut is MIA or I lost track of them...Neoluddities I follow lean that way because they are well versed. Also my own follows are in disarray and I never got back to fixing that (sorry... lots going on). I myself am pretty boring these days.

@chillicampari

In the UK you have things like Men's Sheds and repair cafes which are popular for this type
Also local cycling charities like Bren bikes and Drosi bikes in #chester and #llangollen
-
@jpoesen what part of Spanish countryside are you in? We're thinking of moving to Galicia to explore similar pursuits.
@gerrymcgovern All the way south I'm afraid: between Malaga and Antequera...
-
@jpoesen If you're referring to in-person pursuits, adding a location or region where you live might be helpful if you're wanting more locally tailored answers.
@Quinn9282 Fair point! I guess I'm mostly looking online for now, but otherwise I'm in the greater Malaga city area...

Where do the #lowtech and #NeoLuddites hang out? The #permaculture and #bicycle geeks? The co-op and #RepairCafe heroes?
Looking for alternate scenes around alternate living: sharing, building, eating, and learning together.
Much obliged.
@jpoesen Craft breweries, garages, maker spaces, libraries, metal recyclers, used computer shops, diners, campsites, trails...

Not in Galicia, but also in the North of Spain is Bioketa rural coliving project. You can check my profile if you are interested. -

@jpoesen
Permaculture is more concerned with ethics than low tech (The ethics of earth care, people care and fair share).Practitioners tend to focus on appropriate technology. Solar panels have a negative environmental impact to manufacture, but are miles better than the alternatives. Sodium ion batteries are a better technology than lithium based chemistries, etc.
There is a an emphasis on natural building, but doesn't forbid things like foam glass insulation (despite embodied carbon).
