:opensource: The #AllThingsOpen #opensource conference is this coming Tuesday & Wednesday in the US.

:covid19: They are taking some but not all of the necessary #COVID19 precautions from #PHPledge so I will be attending the free-of-charge virtual option, which you may want to do as well.

The stream covers some event content via their proprietary SaaS provider. You do have to register so your (real or fake) personal data can be monetized by sponsors.

And here's the direct link to Sunday's #AllThingsOpen workshop day on #Diversity and #Inclusion

It sounds like people who can't participate physically in-person are only allowed to "watch" the video feed and are not fully included. Also sounds like they're doing an alcohol hour afterwards.

Anyway there will probably be some interesting talks at least.

Going right along with their theme of proprietary-only conference platform and Zoom keynotes this year, not a single #OpenSource social media platform linked from the official #AllThingsOpen conference site.

Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTube, Flickr (!), and Slideshare.

Pro tip: Answer your #OpenSource questions in a place with a URL and it can be seen by the public.

Get the most out of your contributions and sharing your knowledge.

:opensource: πŸ€¦πŸ½β€β™‚οΈ Watching the opening keynote of the #OpenSource conference #AllThingsOpen, the organizers urged attendees to download the event's mobile app "from any app store".

Seems like they didn't bother to submit it to the only app store on my phone, @fdroidorg -- most likely because they produced a proprietary event app instead of using one of the many available #FreeSoftware options.

I'd raise the question whether they should rename to "SomeThingsOpen" πŸ™Š πŸ’¨
