Some folks at #FOSDEM tried to buy the makeshift hats one of our team members brought, so I arranged for this prototype of an official hat to be made. It's a fisherman beanie with our logo embroidered. I'm trying to gauge interest here. Is this something you'd buy? (Poll in follow-up post)

We've just published a blog post about our time at #FOSDEM this year, in case you missed out - there's plenty to catch up on, from the session recordings. https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2026/02/fosdem-2026-recap/

Someone at #FOSDEM asked us to put some promotional materials on our website that they could print for an event. There is now a section for that on the Branding page with our first poster: https://joi

I know it's a long shot but if someone who sees this found their way to Mastodon through one of the leaflets we distributed at #FOSDEM, I want to hear from you--what did you think of the leaflet? I need to generalize those for other events.

If you take just one thing away from #FOSDEM this is it. 👇🏽 “If we lose our democracies, Open Source is irrelevant and goes away” or putting it another way: If we don’t apply, enforce, adopt and embrace Open Source in our public and government institutions we risk to lose our democracies. #OpenSource #SaveDemocracy Boost if you agree! 👍🏾

Live images of me gesturing reverently to the projector screen as if it was some kind of eldritch horror (this did indeed suffice to get it working ) #FOSDEM

Not sure what was more ridiculous in my trip to #FOSDEM this year. The food truck that required non-free JavaScript to order or the tour in the EU parliament that could not even bother to use EU tech for the tour.

zomg. i edited this document last night (which i could not see because zero nodes were online). one other person joined me. this morning, i woke up to see my changes sync'd with all the #fosdem nodes who woke up. their (original, earlier) content was neatly stitched together with the text i typed with that one other person yesterday. no tearing/interleaving of text. no data loss. @p2panda@autonomous.zone @jsparber@mastodon.social @tbernard@mastodon.social THIS IS SO COOL ❤️

The #FOSDEM talk from @haubles@hachyderm.io and myself about Mastodon’s upcoming community governance plans; our vision, mission and values; and updates to the server recommendations, is now available to watch. I was honoured to be asked to co-present this session More to come on all of these topics over the coming weeks, on our blog and on the main project account. I’ll be posting about the other sessions from the #SocialWeb Devroom over the next few weeks, as well. https://fosdem.org/2026/schedule/event/HJYRFF-tending-the-herd/

#fosdem gave me an opportunity to have several chats about living under the specter of war and the specter of fascism the idea i has in my head, going into #fosdem, was "doing nothing is not an option" in our talks, folx were expressing that they don't read the news. some said they feel powerless, so they prefer to "not know" this led me to think about how i can embolden and encourage people to engage with the world in a way that specifically gives them the experience of having agency

A big and warm thank you hug to all the friends I met and talked to in Brussels this time. Two packed days of events before #FOSDEM including an awesome prize ceremony, then two intense days at ULB where I must have talked to more than a hundred persons. All the positivity, the appreciation, the smiles, the ideas, the energy. I got to end-keynote the thing and then top it off with more drinks and countless friends - again. I'm drained now, but in a good way. I'll be back next year.

@Floppy@mastodon.me.uk let’s be generous. 😎 Since European companies spend ca. €265 billion per year on US cloud software and services for business use, I guess we could cover every #FOSDEM participant. 💸 Source: study by Cigref (2025).

Tornato a casa, sto ancora metabolizzando 😅 Al #FOSDEM ho incontrato persone che non sapevo ci fossero, perso chi volevo trovare (e perso chi era con me 🙃). Un continuo trovarsi e perdersi, non ho fatto tutto quello che pensavo, ma ho fatto cose che non immaginavo avrei mai potuto fare. E alla fine abbiamo trovato un bel posto per incontrarci tuttə. #cosebelle Grazie a chi c’era e soprattutto a chi è salito sul palco: @magostinelli@mastodon.uno e @openforfuture@mastodon.uno di @fedimedia@mastodon.uno & ai miticə @_elena@mastodon.social e @evan@cosocial.ca ❤️

I return back home from #FOSDEM with only a few hundred curl stickers left. I say we did a good job.

RE: https://social.opensource.org/@policy/115973439987716305 So hyped to be welcoming the amazing @alexandrageese@bonn.social to our #FOSDEM devroom! Alexandra is undoubtedly the leading MEP working on social media, she's also on the Fediverse! If you haven't already, she's definitely worth following! #EUpol #EP #EU #DSA
