On tenterhooks waiting to see EU election results, and the policy priorities that follow.

This is the single biggest election year in human history, with at least 64 countries going to the polls, almost all of which are understood to be massively consequential.

Whatever may come: onward together, my friends โค๏ธ

PSA for Californians: make sure you have the Watch Duty app on your phone, and that notifications are enabled for yours and nearby counties. FIRE SEASON IS HERE ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Notifications may have been disabled automatically by your phone doing permissions cleanup due to disuse during the wet season.

Very excited, I'm investing in a modular air quality monitoring kit that I can use at all the events I help run โœจ

No organization I'm involved with needs em often enough to procure their own, but I can certainly justify it for my consultancy!

I have only grace to offer volunteers when circumstances change and expectations need to be reset.

But when I'm left holding the bag before a deadline, and they've gone radio silent...

I just... I just can't with this :blobcatknife:

We did it, folks! Matrix has hit a new milestone in its open governance by electing a Governing Board to guide the Foundation and provide more representative and structured input to the evolution of the protocol.

Of course, while seating a Governing Board is a big deal, the hardest work remains ahead of us. I have high hopes for what we will accomplish together! ๐Ÿš€ https://matrix.org/blog/2024/06/election-results/

Happy Pride Month, beautiful people ๐Ÿคฉ

You can make someone's dream come true this month: join me in helping my dear friend Ravyn raise the funds they need for gender affirming care! https://gofund.me/382f7f3e :BlahajWavingTransFlag:

Boosts appreciated :boost_rainbow:

josh,
@josh@josh.tel avatar

We've just crossed $2000 on the way to $17000 for Ravyn's gender affirming care ๐Ÿš€

That's $1K from Maia Kobabe, author of Gender Queer, $500 from an anonymous donor, and a handful of tech industry friends with donations from $5 to $125. THANK YOU! :BlahajWavingTransFlag:

Can you help us get to $3000? Every dollar counts. Give the gift of gender euphoria this Pride Month! https://gofund.me/382f7f3e

Can't donate? Boosts are also massively helpful ๐Ÿ’– :boost_rainbow:

Apparently I'm going to @dweb camp in August. In the redwoods. In a tent. With a laptop.

Beats still conferences in overpriced hotels wearing a tie.

Does anyone have a recommendation for an affordable, user-friendly chatter environment a la Slack where it's possible to have, say, up to 500 accounts? Asking for a campus AAUP chapter.

We're willing to spend some $ but don't want to break the bank, and don't need a lot of bells & whistles. We do need it to be easy to use.

Update: Thanks to everyone who offered ideas! We approached @zulip & they generously sponsored a noncommercial/educational free account for us. Super awesome ๐Ÿ˜Š

@josh@josh.tel avatar

@inquiline Well clarified question ๐Ÿ˜‚ Zulip, Mattermost, and Rocket Chat are a few options that frequently come up as Slack alternatives that aren't Matrix.

I haven't managed a Drupal-backed website since D7, and suddenly a volunteer gifts me with a clean D10 install, with our old campaign's static site fully adapted into a theme to boot.

I am delighted at how the admin UX has evolved ๐Ÿคฉ

Also hurray for amazing volunteers :ablobcatheartsqueeze:
