     Oh yeah! And during @evan’s talk, he mentioned https://tags.pub but apologized for its design because he’s “not a designer.” So… I opened a PR that was merged to make the typography a little nicer (plus dark style support).

     We can just do things!

     Day 2/4 of #FOSSY (1/2 of #FediCon) has come to an end. It was SO good!!

     I didn’t know exactly what to expect from FediCon, but it’s been really inspiring and optimistic. I planned to bounce between FOSSY tracks, but ended up hanging out in the FediCon room w/folks building and passionate about the fediverse all day.

     I’m grateful I was able to share an impromptu crash course on trust & safety as well; it’s a critical piece of the puzzle that we need more people to understand and care about.

     New stress dream unlocked: I woke up in a sweat because I totally forgot to prepare for my TWO talks I signed up to give at FOSSY.

     I did not submit any talks to FOSSY this year. 🤣

     Day two is off to a great start otherwise!

     I took this to say I’m ready for FOSSY day one and show people what I look like to find me in person, but it just ended up looking like “Cassidy is a big boy now and headed off to school.” 🎒

     I’ll be arriving at the UBC campus around 8 PM this evening. Anyone else coming in early and want to grab a drink tonight or a coffee in the morning?? I’m also cassidyjames.01 on Signal in case that’s more reliable.

     I’m headed to FOSSY and Fedicon in BC, Canada in just a couple of short days! I look forward to catching up with folks, learning a bunch, and chatting about both @roost and @gnome.

     Come find me!
