Hi everyone :)

The first fediverse hackathon ended. We did translation, some wanted to create a new software or feature. Pretty cool for a event announced the last minute. :)

Usually the hackathon last few days and everyone spend their whole week-end on developping few features, documentation…but that’s not how i imagine it.

Two days is kinda short and only give a little boost. 😁

We will organise the fedihack at the beggining of every month. Our aims is to invite new users to contribute to the fediverse and of course meeting each other IRL and have fun like CHATONS do.

CHATONS (kittens) is a collective network of associations that purpose service based on free software. However, we also organize meeting, coordinate our skills for managing the server, or take action against big tech service as gmail, meet people and invite them to the fediverse.

That would be my dream for the upcoming year. ☺️

  • meeting at a coffee, associations…
  • translation
  • wiki : admin & user documentation
  • coding apps & software
  • creating new software
  • talking to people on the street
  • fediparty

But i can’t achieve it alone, i need your help. I can’t organise it, that’s not my best skill. I prefer writing wiki, organize structure and suggesting ideas ☺️

If this project interest you, you can follow our chat on zulip. What do you think ? :)

    True that. But if no one takes any initiative… normally, I would have used the word ‘leadership’ but it’s clear you don’t wish to go that road so I won’t ;)

    I did take the initiative to push and create the fedihack event merely because i was organizing a meeting with @takapapatapaka@tarte.nuage-libre.fr to solve issues with french translation.

    My ideal organization is self-management. And also i hope someone can help me, you ? :)

    Also, neutrality may not be that important either (bear with me) and the moment that neutrality turns into hesitation it also instantly becomes a dangerous foe. At least, once again, during the beginning phase of any project.

    Yes but it is important for this project. I did translation for Piefed, wiki for Piefed, i suggest ideas for Piefed…so i’m not the right person for achieving what i want for the fedihacks. It’s not PiefedHacks but FediHacks.

    That’s a way to balance. When other projects will be here, i will fell more at ease to suggest things we can do. :)

    Fedihack needs to grow beyond Piefed and reach Lemmy, Loops, Mastodon, Mbin, Nodebb, Peertube, Pixelfed, Vernisage…mobile app, then we will work together, help each other. :)
