@johnonolan@mastodon.xyz it sure did alright! Can't argue with success on the fediverse.

@andypiper@macaw.social ah I was asking about them as you were leaving HSBXL! Next time. It's pretty cost prohibitive to ship anything to Canada... although letter mail maybe not...

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

@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!
