there's a certain day of the week every year, that allows you to calculate the day of the week for any date that year -- in your head!

for 3 years out of four, it's January 3
in the fourth, in leap year, it's January 4

so for 2026, this day, called Doomsday, is Saturday

The Doomsday Algorithm
rudy.ca/doomsday.html

the easiest part of the Doomsday algorithm is the even months

all of these Doomsdays are Saturdays in 2026 --

April (4th month) 4th
June (6th month) 6th
August (8th month) 8th
October (10th month) 10th
December (12th month) 12th

the other months are fairly easy too, and pretty soon you will be able to do any date this year

check out the 2026 Doomsday calendar below

you can also extend this to other years and even centuries, but it's a bit trickier

the Doomsday Algorithm was originally devised by John Horton Conway, a famous mathematician, who died of COVID in 2020

This can only end one way.

Announcing Jabboratory, a partner collective of @joinjabber
Jabboratory aims to be for the people who already have an XMPP account and want to help improve XMPP and the Jabber network.

We use the same CoC as JoinJabber and all the same governance documents. All of them being by Vojkruco codeberg.org/Vojkruco/Cooperat… and we are hosted under the Vojkruco umbrella.

Some of the things we do are:
- specifications (called XCSPs in Jabboratory),
- developer help/documentation and implementation collaboration
- improve XMPP/Jabber network socially (safer spaces, blocklists, outreach, organizing events, pushing for a better non-tech culture, etc.)
or anything else that includes improving XMPP and Jabber network as a whole.

We aim for diversity of ideas, include people directly in all aspects of decision making (protocol, implementations, social, etc.) and build a space where people feel safe to talk, ask for help, bring up any kind of ideas and work with others to implement said ideas. By the community for the community with inclusive decision making to serve the people affected.

you are welcome to join our lounge room here -> invite.joinjabber.org/#lounge@…
It is strictly non-tech because we aim for inclusivity, but we do of course have other channels some of them being tech related🙂

We already have some implementations, servers, and XMPP collectives involved (including JoinJabber) and we are all building a better XMPP and Jabber network together 🙂

Happy Jabber Day 🎂 🥳

On January 4, 1999, Jabber was first announced to the public¹.

Twenty-seven years later, Jabber—or XMPP, as it became known after standardization through the #IETF—remains the only truly vendor-independent, federated instant messaging platform.

In almost three decades, XMPP has never stopped evolving and remains our best tool for digital independence.
