Attention #Fediverse save the date!
On February 24th, 2026 in #Montreal we're putting on a fediverse event.

- A morning of technical talks
- An accessible afternoon to bring-a-friend
- An evening to socialize.

For my bit, I'll be doing a talk on how content creators can build their own self-hosted #Patreon with FOSS tools!

@paige ooh I want to know about that! Will the event be streamed/recorded for those of us who sadly find ourselves far away from Montreal?

[res260@infosec.exchange]

@paige What about simply "FediMTL"?

@matt@writing.exchange @res260@infosec.exchange @Floppy@mastodon.me.uk @paige@masto.canadiancivil.com ​I live in Raleigh NC. I can't make it. But I too hope there's a live stream or recording. Preferably on Peertube. :-). Can we get more info in general really? Is this a new project! I must know more! 😄

@res260 I feel like it's cheating to name another thing Fedi<What-it-does> but it's true that may be the best option.
I trust @meadmin to help us nail a bi-lingual option if there is one.

@ozoned @Floppy @matt @res260 if you make it up I'll take ya for a cross country ski in Parc Jean Drapeau.
Come on up to Canada bud!

@paige @meadmin Fediverse is just Fédivers in French, pretty convenient

@paige@masto.canadiancivil.com amazing! Are you looking for speakers? :eyes:

I need to move a few things around but I'd love to attend.

Thanks @evan for the ping. I missed this!

@paige Would've loved to have come, but I already have travel plans 😭 will there be a live stream?

[paige@masto.canadiancivil.com]

@quillmatiq recording is planned, live streaming is a bit too much

[paige@masto.canadiancivil.com]

@julian we are and had you on our list to contact which I guess @evan is working through.

[quillmatiq@mastodon.social]

@paige the fomo will be real, but I'll catch up 🙂

[julian@activitypub.space]

@paige@masto.canadiancivil.com aces. I'm moving things around and will confirm within the week! Looking forward to providing a talk title and abstract soon.
