Je suis ce week-end au @fosdem Γ  Bruxelles pour parler de Podcasts 2.0 et de @Castopodβ€―!
Rendez-vous dimanche Γ  13h00 dans l'auditorium Janson.
β€œPodcasting 2.0: it's all about Interoperability (How Podcasting 2.0 will save the Open Internet)” #fosdem #podcasts
fosdem.org/2023/schedule/event…


Hey #Fosdem! Jason is heading to the #Github Open Social event tonight at Scott’s Bar and Kitchenβ€” and he has a limited quantity of these #Thunderbird stickers and T-shirts to give away!

Want one? Find him between 8pm and 10pm. He’s wearing a Thunderbird hoodie.


Packed room for #fosdem talk on the ICT Sector.


Before we get to the (possible) remedy, some taking stock:

* FOSS today doesn't compete with proprietary, it facilitates it
* Labour of FOSS developers is "increasingly dictated by firms"
* FOSS contributors often have precarious employment, are among the first to be cut (apparently?)

#fosdem


But hey ... does that mean that open source has 'won'? No, says Nolan. We still have largely no control over the majority of services + platforms that facilitate much of people's daily lives #fosdem


The period 2000-present characterised as "open source is everywhere". FOSS used in 92% of all apps. People from Microsoft are among the largest contributor group to open source #fosdem


Nolan sketches the period 1970s-2000s as one in which free software advocacy gets cast as communism or anarchism. Labels that one should resist? :think_mind_blown:​ #Fosdem2023 #fosdem


First point of attention: politics and economics of software are (inherently? intimately?) linked #fosdem #fosdem2023


Mike Nolan speaks on winners and losers in FOSS. What open source 'won'? #Fosdem2023 #fosdem

Now streaming at #Fosdem: 10 years of anti-tracking at #Mozilla: matrix.to/#/#2023-ua2.220_guil…


We are at #FOSDEM in the realtime lounge in the K building. Come say hi if you are around


@hub If you browse the #FOSDEM tag here on the Fediverse, you'll see lots of photos of very crowded spaces full of people not wearing masks at all. Once in a while, you might see someone wearing a mask, but it's rare.

Same for all the video streams so far.

I've heard from people who are there that they estimate >= 95% of the crowd aren't wearing masks.

And hallways and rooms are packed full.

😟


#FOSDEM is basically admitting they're a super spreader event.

There are many science-based things conferences can do. The Public Health Pledge (@phpledge) has badging principles with suggestions on how to help prevent people getting sick (at different levels, in various ways): phpledge.com/badging β€” but FOSDEM isn't doing these things. They could.

(Many of us attending in-person got FOSDEM flu in years past. But now COVID is in the mix)

Hoping that everyone stays well despite this. πŸ€


Excited about #FOSDEM beginning in #Brussels. Thanks to all of the #volunteers that made this event possible.


We're at #FOSDEM 2023, in Brussels! Come to our stand (K level 1, group C), say hello, and grab some awesome LibreOffice merchandise 😊

In two weeks (4 & 5 February 2023) #FOSDEM will take place in #Brussels and I'm asking myself if we can have a #Friendica developers & community meeting there at some point over the weekend.

@Friendica Developers @Friendica Admins @Friendica Support


Instead of going to Brussels in February, I'm going to print out this sign for my office door and then watch the talks on my phone from the kitchen for the proper #FOSDEM experience.


nice! We love your project and it would be great if we could meet at #FOSDEM. If you are up for it, email us at office (at) cloud68.co.
