@evanprodromou@socialwebfoundation.org thank you again for organizing it all, I was really happy (and just a little proud) to be part of the inaugural social web series of events at FOSDEM. The debrief should be illuminating, I would like to attend, please!

@silverpill@mitra.social when discussed with Nutomic about this, I made the case that 1b12 is excellent for synchronization. 7888 (and 171b, etc.) are good for backfill, in cases where there is no 1b12 implementation available.

@jiejie@mastodon.social good question! The answer ultimately lies in how you want to communicate with your audience. Each option is different and it's hard for you to know which software is the best fit. That's why even when I say NodeBB sits somewhere in between microblogs and blogs, NodeBB might not be the right solution, yeah? What kind of site do you want to build, how in depth do you want to go, etc.?

There's nothing of value between where @dansup@mastodon.social lives and I live I jest, but while I am throwing out ideas I have a lead on a space in Toronto that could easily hold 200 standing room. Depends how big you want to think. @reiver@mastodon.social did we already discuss that you were from Canada? In all that went on it might've just slipped my mind. @liaizon@social.wake.st @andypiper@macaw.social @evan@cosocial.ca

Michiel Leenars from NGI answering @j12t@j12t.social's question about reaching everybody who needs NLNet grant money who needs it, mentions "funding things that work", specifically calling out ActivityPub. cc @ec_ngi@ec.social-network.europa.eu

@ayo@social.ayco.io and then all eyes landed on @evan@cosocial.ca

@j12t@j12t.social about 200 seats in-house and consistently full! Amazing.

@reiver@mastodon.social that would be me! I was poking fun a bit at @dave@upp2.com because Fediscovery is an ambitious solution to one of the fediverse's "hard problems". Why not feature creep some more while I'm there? hah! The full gist of the question was... "the broad use-case of fediscovery would be to try to achieve some sort of global search, where anything can be found, but could there be a use-case where someone could use the Fediscovery FASP to build a domain-specific search provider, e.g. science-based, meme-based, etc.?" I'll be speaking more about those "hard problems" tonight at the Social Web After-Hours event at HSBXL. Will you be there? I'd love to say hello!
