The vast majority of events (talks, hacking sessions, open discussions) are held inside “developer rooms” (“devrooms”), which are mini-conferences organized and managed by open source projects themselves.
It’s also FREE !! 🥳

Actually going this year. Have wanted to for many. Really looking forward to it.

Hoping this tool lives up to its own hype:
PyInfra—where your infrastructure is actually code. Real Python. With loops that don’t require learning a DSL. With functions that are… wait for it… actual functions. With error handling that doesn’t involve praying to the YAML gods

Given the quality of your average Python code this sounds like a terrible idea.

Compare it to your average clickops delpoyment, ansible, tf, or crossplane though

Quite a few! And so many overlap! Thankfully they’re all supposed to be live streamed and recorded. An excerpt of my personal schedule:

Since that whole vibe-coded Cloudflare Matrix nonsense and associated attempted retcon – see here for context – I am looking forward to a talk on how Matrix actually works.
Specifically, I’d like to know what aspects of a secure, decentralized message platform are particularly hard. That’s in the context of whether Matrix can ever grow into a bona fide Signal competitor (nb: Signal remains the gold standard), and also whether Matrix would function well as a Discord replacement, even if it doesn’t have as strong of group chat privacy and encryption protections.

Apparently some interesting XMPP talks, but I haven’t had a closer look at the schedule yet

I’ll spend more time talking to people, plotting Linux phone world domination type stuff and planning to take people off WhatsApp with XMPP folks, tbh
Will they finally be uploading their talks to peertube? Or will I need to use YouTube again?

What funny is it is Mozilla giving away free cookies with a sign that says, “Only accept my cookies”.
