Hey all,

I’m an engineer on the Windows Terminal. We work pretty closely with the PowerShell team, but admittedly, I’m still more of a CMD guy myself. I know, I know, “here’s a nickel kid, get yourself a real shell, blah blah blah”.

I’m always looking for a new place to keep my ear to the ground and get first-hand feedback from our users.

Hello! My clients have me administer their servers and mostly scheduled tasks on those. Powershell is an invaluable tool for that. I’ve built analyzers that determine whether scheduled tasks ran a normal amount of time, or whether they took too long, compared to their own normal duration. I also regularly run benchmarks to determine the fastest way to do things, like archiving millions of files across file servers.

Decided to browse lemmy.ml, saw a post in their sysadmin sub about this poweshell sub from another instance. Clicked an instance link, changed it to lemmy.world (where my account is) then subbed. Lemmy’s federation is really neat lol.

I use powershell alot at work to automate some tedious tasks and have created a handful of functions in a personal module over the years, mostly related to gather information from remote windows computers. Maybe I will grab them and post them when I next get to the office! I should really setup git haha

Thanks, Matt, for creating this community! I’ll start helping with broadcasting and promotion of the community on the sites where I’m active.

For everyone else, here’s my introduction: I am a DevOps engineer for a finance company and use PowerShell and Python daily to build infrastructure in AWS cloud.

I attempt to promote and evangelize PowerShell, helping new learners with the basics and participating in the online community as often as I can. I’ve been a blogger (albeit somewhat inconsistent) on PowerShell and technology in general since 2018.

I’m excited to be here and connect with like-minded individuals.

Check out my profile here for links to my blog and other socials.

Hello!

I’m an Azure/dotnet dev and I am bad at Powershell. I am looking forward to sharing all of my disgusting hacks with you all!

Hello, I work as a sysadmin/DevOps and I work with all sorts of tools but I often go back to powershell if I need to write a pipeline, get some information, or writing a quick wrapper for some api calls.

Hey, all. I’m a systems administrator in a mixed environment. Use PowerShell a lot for automating various tasks, maintenance, etc.

Self-taught and been using PS for about 4 years now, daily.

Glad to see a community starting here!
