@reiver @evan Yeah, that's actually the issue I'm very considering… and I think we probably should speak multiple languages and offer some real-time AI translators (which unexpectedly worked well at @fossforall last year)?

And, there are also many other issues which are very East Asian!

@hongminhee@hollo.social What should be the official language?
Not all developers are proficient in English. How will we support those who struggle with presentations or question sessions in languages other than their native tongue?

Since many developers—particularly Japanese speakers—prefer not to use their real names or appear in public, should we allow remote participation, voice-only contributions, or presentations using avatars like VRChat or VTubers?
There's also a risk of faceless participants appearing in photos or videos during developer interactions, potentially leading to privacy issues.

@yas Yeah, these are all very East Asian problems and indeed real issues! At @fossforall last year in Korea, we'd spoken Korean or English and some real-time AI translators (which unexpectedly worked well) were offered too.

Presentations using virtual avatars sound really interesting. Definitely should be allowed for much broader speakers (especially who're common in Misskey)!

@reiver Yeah, indeed I'm slowly getting at speaking English now!

I had thought about this, but I am not sure how to handle paid RSVP. Monetization matters. We can consider attaching external link, but, I think it is not complete solution

These are ideal and fit into my mental model.

But I don't know how to complete implement paid RSVP for fediverse. That's bottleneck

This is what they took from us #activitypub #c2s

@evan I'm not sure; I've never organized such big event, so I need some help!

Thanks all for listening to my talk about #Fedify at #FOSDEM 2026 today! Here's my deck for the talk: Fedify: Building ActivityPub servers without the pain.

@janro Thank you so much for listening my talk!

So one of my dreams is to organize an ActivityPub/fediverse conference for East Asia, as I told about it multiple times before…

@julian @reiver Yeah, if FediCon will be held this year too, I definitely will attend there!

It's definitely worth taking a 20-hour flight! 🥰

So… the first day of #FOSDEM 2026 was so inspiring, and it really motivated to build more things for #ActivityPub and the #fediverse! Also it was a lot of fun to meet hundreds of kind and smart people!

Some nice themes running through the #SocialWeb Devroom at #FOSDEM: storytelling from different national and international contexts (Italy, Netherlands, Germany, Europe); new apps and ideas (badgefed, splinter, FASPs, Spritely); building infrastructure and foundational tech (Bonfire, Fedify, Emissary). This is really great momentum! The speaker list today has been wonderful.

@bloeckchengrafik Thanks for listening my talk!

Wasn't aware of FEP-8a8e (A common approach to using the Event object type)!

@andypiper@macaw.social just said at #FOSDEM that 2 years ago Mastodon had a booth. Last year Fediverse had half a day. This year, there's a FULL TRACK of #fediverse !

THAT is growth! That is EXCITEMENT! That is people spreading this thing. Keep up the amazing work ALL of you!

ALL OF US MAKE THIS WORK!

And I am so grateful to you for it.

Thanks all for listening to my talk about #Fedify at #FOSDEM 2026 today! Here's my deck for the talk: Fedify: Building ActivityPub servers without the pain.

@fedify abstracts away complexity in building for the fediverse

Now we have @hongminhee presenting @fedify!

@hongminhee hat mit Fedify ein Framework erstellt, also ein Software-Baustein, der anderer Software dabei helfen kann, schneller „fediversisch“ zu sprechen. Und das ist gar nicht so einfach. Um so wichtiger, dass es Fedify gibt. Die Blogsoftware Ghost nutzt es beispielsweise.

@alvan Thanks very much for listening my talk!

@hongminhee hello!

It was a great presentation, and a great project! Now that Fedify takes care of the boring part, I can build something for fediverse as well.

@Yohei_Zuho FOSDEM 2026に来てただいまFediLUG Italiaの存在を知りましたが、ご存知でしたか？

I’ll be talking about ties, the federated bookmark manager, today at FOSDEM - 14:00 in the Social Web devroom.

Come join and get some ties stickers!

@reiver Hey, it's COSCUP in Taiwan I told you ealier! I'd like to attend both COSCUP 2026 and FediCon 2026, so it would be really great if FediCon would happen in different dates from COSCUP.

I overslept. Looks like I'll have to grab some brunch real quick and head to ULB.
