Heya, I’m at #btconf today, find me for hugs & stickers. I brought a @molly0xfff collection plus some surprise #JSConfEU & @couchdb items.

One of the reasons I’m going is that I simply miss my people. This is only my second event after #XOXOFest this summer since the covid era started and this week, more than any other, I need to re-find my community.

Please come and say hi <3

There were a lot of great stickers at #xoxofest but this was my favorite and I’d love to share their soundcloud

I just published a post to my blog, no tags, no images (I'm horrible about matching my content to tags people actually use)

But I would like feedback on my more than slight crazy idea for a conference format (it isn't specific to one field or topic) and it is influenced in part by #xoxofest which I attended earlier this year.

While I didn't say this in my post (may edit it to add) please feel free to copy this idea (I'd love to help)

I don't know #xoxofest , I'm nowhere near that business, and I only know @cabel as an amusing person here on #mastodon .

But this is a really fun talk. Kudos. (and watch till the end)

The talks from the final XOXO festival are... glorious. The web (still) has loads of wonderful people doing wonderful work. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

i’ve been waiting for AGES to share this #xoxofest talk with people who weren’t there. i can’t tell you what it’s about without spoiling it. just watch it (but maybe skip the first minute or two, they follow a brief recap that isn’t included)

I never thought a story about something so random as a suburban McDonald’s location decor could ever go so deep.

A great reminder to value the talent and amazing work that surrounds us, instead of looking past it.

I have enjoyed and admired Ed Yong's work long before his outstanding work on the pandemic. Don't miss his #xoxofest talk with very personal insights.

My one gripe with #XOXOFest was the amount of McDonalds content, but @cabel’s talk was very worth it.

I’ve been waiting with great anticipation to post @cabel’s #xoxofest talk and now it’s out!

No summary I can give can do it justice - you just gotta see it, it’s way weirder and more wonderful than you can possibly imagine: https://xoxofest.com/2024/videos/cabel-sasser/

Finally got around to watching Dan Olson's #xoxofest talk (HT to @tante for sharing it iirc) - and boy does a lot of that hit close to home.

… "I agreed to do this because I hope it speaks to issues … a lot of us are wrestling with. The … enshittification of our online spaces. How to navigate a maze of perverse incentives without losing yourself. The search for purpose, validation, & hope in a time of existential crises.

… "including:
▪ my 7 rules for being a public figure in a time of crisis;
▪ the cognitive dissonance of achieving success for soul-crushing work;
▪ l why I’m almost entirely off social media."

Dan Olson’s video from #xoxofest is out! Of all the talks at XOXO, this one resonated with me the deepest, to the point that I’m not totally sure I want you watching it because then you’ll know maybe too much about how my brain works, too. https://xoxofest.com/2024/videos/dan-olson

I highly recommend this talk from @molly0xfff, about taking back the internet. I remember the feeling of the internet being exciting, and for the people. It's inspiring to try and push for a better future for the web as a whole.

#Internet #xoxofest

Inspirational talk by @molly0xfff at #xoxofest. Let's push back against big tech and show them what WWW really stands for, the World Weird Web.

I’ve been feeling rather down about The Web™ for a long time. This talk by @molly0xfff gave me new hope. I’m *so* glad to have seen it in person. 🫶❤️‍🩹 #XOXOFest

New #xoxofest videos just dropped: https://xoxofest.com/2024/videos/

I can’t emphasize how wonderful it was to see these live, and how much they are worth your time now.

So someone recommended this to me at #xoxofest and honestly it's really fun. This game randomiser is fairly well thought out and it really changes how you think about Super Metroid.

https://maprando.com/

The one thing that gets really hurt is the story and plot aspect of the game. Much of the mapping is designed to tell a story and build tension, and some of that does get lost. But this can probably alleviated a little bit with more tweaking.

Highly recommend!

v excited to show you all the finished 'xoxo' stained glass piece!

I stand corrected. I got it to work!

@simonbs you were right many months ago: hand-rolling my own editor backed by NSAttributedString was the actual solution to the “how to use multiple fonts in an editor with cursor support, in a single line” conundrum. Thank you x1000 for the suggested rabbit hole.

#wishyouwerehere #SwiftUI #sharedPhotography #xoxofest

The number one feature request for my #wishyouwerehere app is “please make a cursor for editing.” For various fun technical reasons (needing to switch from concatenated Text() views with different font settings, to attributed strings), adding a cursor while editing is A LOT of work.

So instead: here’s a take on monitoring service availability, and a playful UI for advertising feature gates.

By the end of last week I had written, but wasn't sure I was going to post, my #xoxofest blog post. After the Cohost news today I realized the post wasn't done, even if it seems like so many other things are: https://motd.co/2024/09/eternal-december/

goodbye, #xoxofest

https://clarity.flowers/journal/goodbye_xoxo.html

In the latest edition of Closing Remarks, I talk about the closures of Rothko Chapel, Bellevue Arts Museum, Deer Lake Gallery, and more. I also share enduring lessons of the (now-defunct) XOXO festival (#xoxofest), as well as some sage words from a non-profit consultant.

Boarded AS384 PDX-SFO. #xoxofest was amazing. I'm sad to be leaving, but excited to get break to work.

XOXO 2014

Having a hard time motivating myself to write an #xoxofest blog post. The ones I'm reading are so much better than mine would be.

As #xoxofest comes to an end, the rain stops and the sun is shining.

I really need #xoxofest indiemaker jfdi awesomeness reminders more often than once a year.

Listening to @marcoarment. All of the stuff he was afraid of really resonates. #xoxofest

Wow @vihartvihart is amazing #xoxofest

At #xoxofest the speakers and the attendees wear the same badges.

Time to find pre-#xoxofest breakfast w/ @quince downtown. Happy to have folks join us.

Taking a break from #xoxofest to recharge. Pricing laser cutters on ebay

Contemplating an early dinner on the west side before #xoxofest opening party / awesome foundation party. Anybody hungry?
