 The session notes from all #FediForum September 2024 sessions are now available. They represent an incredible body of knowledge about the latest thinking by many of the people who move today's Fediverse forward. Plus links to the speed demos of all the cool Fediverse software we saw. Happy reading, and happy watching! The demo videos from #FediForum September 2024 are now on-line. Fourteen demos of cool #Fediverse software, as shown off by the developers themselves! Innovation is alive and kicking in the Fediverse! Given this is the Fediverse, get them from PeerTube here: https://spectra.video/w/p/q1BXeNF5PWFipFy5f44v9h (They are on YouTube, too, but we will post the link to there later.) Hi European #Fediverse people! Did you know #FediForum starts and ends at times that work for your time zone(s) as well? We start at 8am California time, which is quite early for Californians :-) so that we can end by 22:00 central European time -- which is late for you, but not impossibly so. This way, we can bring a truly international, intercontinental community together. And this time, you can even attend on a Saturday not just work week days. Join us Sep 12-14? https://fediforum.org We still have a few demo slots. What's a cool Fediverse application or platform that we should invite to demo at #FediForum ? @Johannab is coming to FediForum and wants to talk about: "Moderator networking; platform-independent moderation tools or resources; new platform initiatives" Join us September 12-14? https://fediforum.org As #FediForum is coming closer, we are working on putting our demo track together. Who has built something really cool in the #Fediverse in recent months that should be seen by more people? Send them our way! Mark your calendars! The next FediForum, the unconference for the people who move the Fediverse forward, is coming up September 12-14, 2024. The most recent Fediforum in March had the largest attendance ever of developers, users, moderators, and many other people interested in building a better social media environment. We will build on this in September, for the first time in a 3-day event. We'd love to see you join us and your peers. More info and registration: https://fediforum.org FediForum has made it into a bunch of publications this week. Most focus on the demo at FediForum where Meta's @pcottle showed off Threads' #Fediverse integration publicly for the first time, but there's lots of good stuff talking about FediForum itself, too. Engadget also has a piece about the #threads demo at #fediforum today, this one comes with a link to our website. Nice! https://www.engadget.com/meta-previews-fediverse-sharing-for-threads-001632698.html #FediForum has made it into The Verge: "Meta just showed off Threads’ fediverse integration for the very first time" https://www.theverge.com/24106231/threads-fediverse-demo-meta-fediforum  #FediForum tickets are as low as $1.99. Other ticket categories subsidize the low-cost option. This enables people who could not otherwise attend FediForum to come and participate on an equal basis. The various ticket categories pay for the exact same access. Thank you, everybody, who is voluntarily helping out with funding the almost-free tickets, it makes a big difference! Tickets in all categories are again available. See you tomorrow morning! FediForum “meet and greet” in one hour if you are registered for the #Fediverse unconference starting tomorrow. Our countdown on https://fediforum.org says it's less than 4 days to #FediForum, the leading event bringing together the people who move the Fediverse forward. Join us to discuss the future of decentralized social networking and the #Fediverse? It's on-line, two half-days, and again we have registrations from all around the world from people with a broad variety of backgrounds. Tickets are as low as $1.99, and registration is still open. Join us? https://fediforum.org The schedule for #FediForum next week is now on-line, and the list of proposed topics has become even longer! Check it out. https://fediforum.org/2024-03/ Join us? Registration is still open! Less than 10 days until the third #FediForum, the online unconference for the people who move the #Fediverse forward. Registrations are still open! Join us? More info and registration: https://fediforum.org Did we say we had demos at #FediForum ? We just published the first batch of demos. In the speed demo track, each developer has 5 minutes to show off the most interesting features of their #Fediverse-enabled software project. So as an attendee, you can see many projects quickly, and decide which you want to learn about more. And not get bored if a project isn't for you. We encourage developers to run longer sessions on their project later in the day with more details. Only 2 weeks until #FediForum! There is still time to register and join the us to discuss the future of the #fediverse Like last September and a year ago, we are expecting many of the people who move the fediverse forward from all around the world, for two half-days of intense, attendee-driven discussions on all aspects of the fediverse from technology to funding, from moderation to inclusiveness and many other subjects. Join us? Registration is still open! More info: https://fediforum.org Status: sending out confirmation e-mails to FediForum speed demo participants. Some of these demos are going to be really exciting. We can't wait to see them! We may be able to squeeze two more demos into the schedule. If you would like to demo, don't delay contacting us. And if we talked, but you haven't filled out the form that we have potential demo participants fill out, you are not on our radar or our schedule. So make sure you have. More topics attendees want to talk about at the upcoming #FediForum have been added to our website: https://fediforum.org/2024-03/ It's an incredibly broad set of topics. But then, the future of the Fediverse is an incredibly broad subject! Today is the 19th of February. On the 19th next month, FediForum will be in full swing. At this time, we will already have seen several cool demos of Fediverse software you might not know of, shown off directly by their developers. And we will have made the agenda for the day together, because FediForum is an unconference, and attendees bring the topics. Session 1 will have just started. Registration is open! Join us to discuss and create the future of the fediverse? |
