Thanks Mike!
I've forwarded the announcement with a link to the group for all the folks in the Fediverse-City Matrix room. You've got a lot of fans there :)
Sergei's #Tutorial / #HowTo on installing #Streams on Debian 12 is really nice too (NOTE: Works w/Trixie just fine as well)

We've been discussing these issues, amongst others lately in the Fediverse-City room on Matrix, what with the relative demise of Meetup.com following its acquisition by WeWork, and the rise of *events over at Faceplant further obviating them having much to do with a plethora of event management projects exploding onto the scene for the past couple of years.
It's been a while since I've visited #Faceplant, so long in fact, I only recently became aware a couple of years ago that they had a marketplace that has largely supplanted craigslist, and finding out just today that they in fact have some sort of events system - that speaks volumes, I think, toward my dedication to dogfooding my #FOSS and simply ignoring, for the most part, there are still some privacy disrespecting operators in the deprecated monolithic silo space of social networking.
#Mobilizon, #Hubzilla, #Rebased, and #Friendica have their own take on how these event management systems should #Federate through the rest of the #Fediverse, while others mentioned in the article below, including #WordPress try to fit into that niche in a cooperative, interoperable way... and it's paying off. Bigtime.
It's a good read, events are powerful for hobbyists, technologists, sports enthusiasts, and just about any kind of IRL or remote attendance awareness and organizing; so it only stands to reason that #DeSoc, and social networking in general include the capabilities to seamlessly propagate events as globally possible.
At the very least, events are heralded as one of the best ways to get free pizza 🍕 and beer 🍺 with others that have common interests. After a veritable shitload of funding from many sources, including NGI0 and even larger corporate sponsors, we're approaching a place where anyone with a Fediverse account, even on the smolweb or most obscure platforms like Threads, will be privy to things like announcements, RSVP, alerts, Etc., of upcoming events, regardless of whether your Fediverse platform of choice directly supports event management.
And it is perhaps a little ironic, that #Threads users themselves will likely have at their disposal, an event notification and management capability in direct conflict with the one that Meta wants them to use - I dunno how that's going to work out, but I think it's pretty kewl that nobody else does either at this time.
#tallship #Fediverse_City #NGI0 h/t to @silverpill for the heads up on the following article, he just always seems to know where that rabbit is hiding in the tophat and pulls it right out when it's most needed, lolz.

The times they are a changin' - it's quite the popular topic in #Fediverse_City and closely followed by many....
But, how 'bout you enlighten many with a few #dark_theme pics? It's very pretty - and more importantly, intuitively operable by the average user due to the simplified UX it exposes :)
Thank you for your envisage of what social communications can be today, right now, without waiting!

Thanks Mike! Stellar work :)
And I've also announced it here in the #Fediverse_City room too:

There's always questions and discussions surrounding Streams, #Hubzilla, #Zap, and #Friendica going on there too, as well as the internetworking between Diaspora/ZOT/ActivityPub protocols.
Everyone is always welcome, but you're especially invited anytime.
Kindest regards,
Bradley

One might say, "Nothing to see here folks, run along home now.", or perhaps, that statement is only true because it has been blatantly obvious and in the face of all of us directly involved since the very beginning.
I urge everyone to read this thread.
I've also posted it to the official #bsky-fediverse (Matrix & Discord) as well as any discussions in the #Fediverse_City room at https://matrix.to/#/#fediverse-city:matrix.org
There's no excuse for drinking that Kool-aid.

Hey that's a great resource too!
And Chris' link to @judell 's InfoWorld article is also really helpful. Jon also takes a moment to highlight just how powerful #Fedilab is, a mainstay everyday goto of my #Fediverse interaction on #Android a few years running!
Chris is also a valued member of our #Fediverse_City room on matrix.
A pleasant inconvenience today is trying to keep up with the rapid contemporary Fediverse innovations 🚀
