Autistic Devs
Autistic Devs
!autistic_devs@programming.dev
A community for devs on the Autistic spectrum.
This is primarily a “safe space” from other communities on programming.dev that would rather tell us to “man up”, than provide any reasonable social advice.
Posts that belong in this community include:
- Venting
- Seeking Advice
- Personal Experiences / Stories
We are open to allistic/NT folx providing feedback! However, it MUST be done with the knowledge and understanding that we are autistic and require a lot more assistance in the domain of social understanding.
Posts/Comments that AREN’T allowed:
- Posts that spread toxic masculinity - “man up”, “be a man”, etc.
- Posts that attack allistic folx or those with different neurodivegence.
- Posts that don’t relate to an Autistic person’s experience in software development, I.T., Infrastructure, or other tech focused roles.
If you are penning a response that includes a technical solution STOP!
Double check that the post asked for a technical solution - it likely doesn’t. We recommend that technical questions go to their respective communities.

Welcome Programmers!
programming.dev is a collection of programming communities and other topics relevant to software engineers, hackers, roboticists, hardware and software enthusiasts, and more.
The site is primarily english with some communities in other languages. We are connected to many other sites using the activitypub protocol that you can view posts from in the “all” tab while the “local” tab shows posts on our site.
🔗 Site with links to all relevant programming.dev sites
🟩 Not a fan of the default UI? We have alternate frontends we host that you can view the same content from
ℹ️ We have a wiki site that communities can host documents on
⚖️ All users are expected to follow our Code of Conduct and the other various documents on our legal site
❤️ The site is run by a team of volunteers. If youre interested in donating to help fund things such as server costs you can do so here
💬 We have a microblog site aimed towards programmers available at https://bytes.programming.dev
🛠️ We have a forgejo instance for hosting git repositories relating to our site and the fediverse. If you have a project that relates and follows our Code of Conduct feel free to host it there and if you have ideas for things to improve our sites feel free to create issues in the relevant repositories. To go along with the instance we also have a site for sharing small code snippets that might be too small for their own repository.
🌲 We have a discord server and a matrix space for chatting with other members of the community. These are bridged to each other (so you can interact with people using matrix from discord and vice versa.
