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 noooo, I'm not in Montreal on the Feb 24 😭 I'll be there at the next event!
@paige Would've loved to have come, but I already have travel plans 😭 will there be a live stream?
@quillmatiq recording is planned, live streaming is a bit too much
@paige the fomo will be real, but I'll catch up 🙂
@quillmatiq @paige This sounds so good. I'd love to know when the videos are posted.
Re: Attention #Fediverse save the date
@paige@masto.canadiancivil.com amazing! Are you looking for speakers? 
I need to move a few things around but I'd love to attend.
Thanks @evan for the ping. I missed this!
@julian we are and had you on our list to contact which I guess @evan is working through.
Re: Attention #Fediverse save the date
@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.
@WTL @dansup we do know that one, it's going to be at Le Ministère on le Plateau

BTW hi Dan, hope you can make it!
@paige I am very curious! If there are talks about how news media can effectively contribute to the fediverse, or anything overlapping with journalism, I may be able to travel to this and treat it as a professional development opportunity.
@paige What about simply "FediMTL"?
@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?
@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! 😄

@paige
I always imagined such a thing would take place in multiple locations, with a self-host option.
