URGENT: @judell would you be able to demo tomorrow instead of Thursday, in what's currently listed as Dick Hardt's slot? They are dropping out, saying software is not ready.
URGENT: @judell would you be able to demo tomorrow instead of Thursday, in what's currently listed as Dick Hardt's slot? They are dropping out, saying software is not ready. @davidslifka wants to talk about "How to help mastodon and the fediverse grow" and help with solving problems around "Algorithms, funding, moderation, marketing/onboarding" at #FediForum starting in like .. 15 hours! Registrations are still open: https://fediforum.org/ @stpaultim wants to talk about "After Mastodon, what should I try next? Tools for managing multiple accounts? What's new in the Fediverse? " at tomorrow's #fediforum https://mas.to/@aaronklemm wants to talk about @bdegraf wants to talk about #identity, #trust, #governance, #cooperatives, and networks of trust at #Fediforum. Glad to have you, Brad! JPEGuin@mastodon.social is going to demo Mammoth, the Mastodon app at #Fediforum, and of course he wants to talk about that! About half dozen people in the #FediForum Meet & Greet already went off into a really deep technical discussion on #ActivityPub / #Mastodon / client / server / possible intermediate layers / composable #UI. Can't put a bunch of smart people into a room without them coming up with smart things almost immediately ... @J12t since this is a commercial event I wonder if there'll be recordings of the talks later on. Change of plans for tomorrow's FediForum / W3C Social Web meeting: there seems to be a lot of interest in this meeting, and we don't know how many concurrent users the volunteered Jitsi server can reliably support. So we'll move to Zoom for this meeting. Updated details at https://fediforum.org/fediforum-w3c-swicg-2023-03-29/ So much interest, in fact, that some people joined the meeting already 24 hours early! I got there today at 10am (instead of tomorrow when it takes places) and there were four people! @cypherhippie wants to talk about "moderation conflict resolution, moderation economic models" at #fediforum It's starting tomorrow! And we have a Meet & Greet in less than 2 hours! https://fediforum.org/ I don't actually know what happens to the Javascript countdown we have on https://fediforum.org/ after it goes to zero Wednesday morning. Should I trying to find out beforehand, or simply be amazed what kind of overflow we'll be getting? @J12t I vote for wait and see what is happening once it reached zero. Makes life more interesting π @J12t Since you asked... It just disappears into oblivion. There is an else clause that wipes out the div contents when reaching 0 (I tested by editing the function directly in countdown.js from Chrome DevTools). We set up a #group for #FediForum. I have no idea whether anybody will use it, but here it is: Follow it to follow along at FediForum. More reliable than hashtags. Just realizing the only way to record Jitsi conferences is to stream to .... YouTube! That's sort of counter-productive if you try to do open tech rather than surveillance capitalist tech! Or are there Jitsi recording alternatives that I'm just not seeing? @J12t Alternatively, GalΓ¨ne (https://galene.org/ #Galene) is a video chat system which allows recording directly to the filesystem of the host (server). 150th mass shooting of the year in the US today. And itβs still the first quarter of the year. https://www.massshootingtracker.site Very interesting graph of where disaffected Twitter users say on their #Twitter profiles they are migrating to. From this very interesting report: https://www.deweysquare.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/DSG-Snapshot-of-the-Twitter-Migration-March-2023.pdf We're hosting a Meet & Greet for #FediForum attendees tomorrow prior to the actual FediForum event. If you are registered, you should have received a calendar invite. It's entirely optional, in case you want to hang out before the serious business of the unconference :-) or to get acquainted with QiqoChat, the service we are using to host FediForum. There is still time to register. https://fediforum.org @mala: It's been a while since I saw one of those: gopher://gopher.3564020356.org Gopher used to be built into browsers (their version of embrace-extend-extinguish back in the day ...:-)) but not any more. What's a good client to run? @J12t I use Lagrange (https://github.com/skyjake/lagrange) on Mac, bombadillo (https://bombadillo.colorfield.space/) from any linux terminal. But these are just my preferences, you'll probably find other hints following the #gopher hashtag π Have fun! π Rycaut@mastodon.social wants to discuss "Adding enterprises and organizations to the Fediverse (what is needed to help them)" and "automating payments for supporting instance" at #FediForum Fediverse and enterprises is a subject rarely discussed, but should be! Yet another great topic! Hi @fediversereport, glad to see you're coming to #FediForum and wanting to discuss "journalism, activitypub, spreading the fediverse". @debs wants to discuss "Sociotechnical issues - ensuring we think about how do we create a healthier social space and empower users and masto admins to do the same Funding models" at #Fediforum this week. For the many other subjects attendees want to discuss, go to https://fediforum.org/topics |
@J12t Sure, no problem. I wound up making a heavily-edited 5-minute screencast that will be more coherent than I could be live. So we just need to press Play :-)
