Summer/Autumn 2025: Little coding, but lots of socializing and planning
At the first October weekend I (@linos) was attending the Berlin FediDay 2025. It was a meetup of the Berlin and German community, developers of Fediverse applications, and representatives of German speaking media institutions. It was great to see old friends again and meet some online contacts for the first time. We were discussing the future and the role of the Fediverse, which was super motivating. #FediDay
Two weeks later, I travelled to Sofia, Bulgaria, to attend this year’s OpenFest, give a talk and lead a workshop on how the Fediverse can help announce and discover events. Unfortunately, the talk didn’t attract much attention, as LLMs are currently drawing more of an audience. But the discussions with those in attendance were very interesting. The workshop was mainly about trying out #Gancio, #WordPress and #Mastodon and learning about the possibilities for local communities by trying out the applications themselves. I simply provided real test instances, created a list of tasks, including minor pitfalls, and, of course, answered all the questions that came up – and there were quite a few! And a big thank you to the crew and the organizing team, who were so friendly and simply wonderful throughout. #OpenFest
Yesterday, I had an awesome online meeting with the incredibly cool folks behind LAUTI, a free and open-source software for hosting small event calendars. #LAUTI is aimed at small and medium-sized communities and has a big focus on social, cultural and activist stuff. The instance for the Stuttgart area, run by the collective that develops it (@[email protected]), can be found at https://eintopf.info. The developers are in the process of exploring the potential of #ActivityPub and the #Fediverse. I’m very excited and think this could be really great! In case you’ve been wondering: I see LAUTI kind of in between #Mobilizon and #Gancio. In my opinion, it would not be a competitor to them, but it could be a great addition to the Fediverse by filling this gap.
I will be at the #SFSCON in Bolzano, Italy, in two weeks. There will be a whole afternoon focusing on the Fediverse! So in case you’re there you’re invited to join my short talk about Interoperability of Events in the Fediverse: status quo and vision. Or you’re welcome any time to say hello and let’s have a chat.
After that, it’s time to sit down and get back to programming. But it’s very important to me to continually evaluate and understand what the priorities are, and to remind myself why it’s so important that we all continue our work in this area.

This autumn is going to be exiting! I am attending three open source and free software related conferences:
1. The Berlin #Fediday this upcoming weekend in Berlin.
2. The #OpenFest in Sofia, 18th-19th of October. There I will give a more general presentation about the Fediverse and will be holding a three hour hands on workshop, of course focusing on events, too, as it is my niche. https://www.openfest.org/2025/en/
3. The #FSFCON in Bozen (7th-8th November) where it's a Fedi-Friday. Giving a short talk about Events in the Fediverse.
I am looking forward to see you all! :)

Много хубаво е, че споделяте на живо тези интересни прелекции от #OpenFest като смесица от български и английски. Гледаме от чужбина и се чувстваме почти като сме в София👍 Жалко е обаче, че днешните разговори за #FreeBSD не бяха в него. Надявам се, че ще ги споделите в бъдеще.
It's cool that you're sharing this broadcast of #OpenFest. We're watching from abroad and feel almost like we're in Sofia. I hope you'll share today's :freebsd: taks too.
