Oh cool and also @raccoonforfriendicaapp and #Flohra are also under their umbrella

@tsyesika and @cwebber up next talking about what's next for the fediverse!

https://stream.fosdem.org/h2215.m3u8

The fediverse is not done!

@tsyesika is talking about issues with naming and fishing and has a slide up with a fake @Gargron account

They are talking about what the fediverse would look like if we were using more generic servers

@liaizon@social.wake.st as I posted already publicly I'm bothered by the fact they went for AI slop rather than pulling the actual memes, in a community where this is very frowned upon ​​

@FediVariety up next about getting public agencies to use the fediverse

Taking a tiny break to get some fresh air and then ruin the freshness with a cigarette and then back to my regularly scheduled programming. @andypiper has awarded me "official love blog status" so now my duty has peerpressure!

Had a longer break then I meant to opps!

Now we have @mayel and @ivan presenting @bonfire!

"ActivityPub is a contaminatiion vector" - @Bonfire
