Got some fancy new stickers on my laptop from @thibaultamartin at #fosdem :)

Guys, I can't believe it, open source VRChat is here. It's called @overte and it's actually fast. It supports hundreds of people in a single instance and the editor is actually built into the game. You can hang out with your friends and make worlds together. This is INSANE.
The are working on support for Vulkan to make it even faster. Also VRM models so you can have anime girls, of course.
Before we left for preschool this morning, my 4-year-old stopped in front of the table where I left my #FOSDEM stickers. She perused them, picked one up and said "I'm giving this to M" (her best friend).
What did she pick?
"Make art, not billionaires".
You should have seen my smile.
Wishing you all a great day!
P.S.: off I go actually make art - aka a video - promoting the Fediverse and criticizing tech oligarchs
Hope you all had an awesome #FOSDEM, we sure did!
All our leaflets gone, many people stopped by to show off their phones or play with ours, and a lot of "wow I really need to get this on my device"
We had some amazing talks too at the FOSS on Mobile devroom, and some outreach by @anjan presenting pmbootstrap in the embedded devroom.
Huge thanks to everyone who helped run the stand and (hopefully) not lose their voices in the process :D
Safe travels and see you next year

I found a #FOSDEM presentation: Ethersync – Real-time Collaboration in Your Text Editor!
This seems to be a really cool project! I'm considering downloading and trying it.
New blog post on the 27th #XMPP Summit and #FOSDEM25 / #FOSDEM : https://blog.mathieui.net/summit-fosdem-25.html
This year marked #Luanti’s second consecutive appearance at #FOSDEM! Held in Brussels, Belgium, FOSDEM is the largest free and open source software conference in Europe. Fresh off our recent rebranding and new release cycle, FOSDEM was a fantastic opportunity to collect feedback and update people on what’s happening in the Luanti world
For this year’s #FOSDEM conference, our Django accessibility team organized the "Inclusive Web" track. Here’s a recap of how it went! And recordings of all the talks 🌈

For those who missed my closing talk at #FOSDEM on the #SocialWebFOSDEM track (which was part of the "After Hours" event), I've recorded a standalone version. Feel free to boost for reach - and also share with civic institutions and community leaders. #FediverseForFreedom
As promised, here is our report from FOSDEM 2025 and the hackathon we did afterwards:

Just like last year, it was an incredibly productive time in which we were able to tackle hard problems and greatly move postmarketOS development forward.
This hackathon has been financed through your donations from OpenCollective, thank you for making this possible! 💕

Hey friends! It’s nearly time for #FOSDEM, the annual free and open source event in Brussels. This weekend, the Mastodon team will be based in building H.
We’ll be raising funds for the project with some of our merch - beautiful limited edition winter mugs, pins, and t-shirts. We’ll also have fun stickers to share for free, so you can show your support for Mastodon everywhere!
(just so you know: we’re a bit short on larger t-shirt sizes, so come early if you want to buy one of those)
