Today #fosdem at 6pm there are sessions about #chatmail and #deltachat and #webxdc ... Modern email devroom k.4.601 ... Happy global switch day :)
Love FOSS, but don't want to contribute to spreading a cocktail of pathogens among your comrades? #FluConf might be your thing 😷
FluConf is intended as an alternative, online venue for those in these communities who still care about public health.
All online, first day has already started! You can find the program here:

The Ghost approach to #ActivityPub looks great. They get it. Real engagement and ongoing conversations not just broadcasting. I had a similar experience when Mastodon replies started showing up as comments in WordPress, but Ghost is really building this into the core with the reader view as well. “You can’t be on the social web without being social.” #FOSDEM #SocialWebFOSDEM
You can wear a mask at #FOSDEM #fosdem2025
No one is stopping you.
A well-fitting FFP2 or FFP3 mask reduces your risk of catching respiratory illnesses.
If you have flu or COVID symptoms, the most responsible choice is not to attend a conference. The second best choice is to wear a mask and keep your crud to yourself.
You can avoid killing the sole maintainer of an important piece of code.
You can avoid killing funders of open source code.
You can avoid killing or disabling fellow human beings.
At #fosdem @dave of Mastodon dev team presented the next milestone for #Mastodon that will benefit the entire #fediverse
Content is already federated, while search is still confined to the local server. They’re working on search federation through service providers hosting content. #Fediscovery is a project to implement federated search on activitypub federated and decentralised networks. There is already a repository available for the specifications drafts.
Come by the Arch table and get some swag. Come by and say hi to Arch staff and maintainers!
