Regarding the format of the Nix Hour, I'm proposing:

• Keep the focus on a single topic per episode
• Keep the length to at most 1 hour, potentially ending earlier if it's a good time to stop

What if little topics/questions that only take, say 5-10 minutes come up in the issues? I
guess you could wait until such questions from the same topic accumulate enough to warrant
a video on their topic.

While I would be very happy to attend, I am also aware I am not in a particularly popular
time zone. If allowing me to attend will entail 10 others can not I would feel guilty 😅
I guess you could have a poll to see the distribution, to make sure only time zones with
enough demand are chosen.

What do you think?

If it is true there aren't much people in my timezone, it can't be helped so I will be
fine with not ever attending live. The other day I was worried that half of the stream
would be exclusive to attenders. Perhaps in that case it would have been possible to
script a bot to attend just so that the contents could be recorded and I don't miss a
thing. But then other people with the same issue would also need to do the same thing, in
which case it is more efficient to just record everything in the first place.

If the idea of not recording all questions is to allow people who prefer to ask in
private, ask their questions, they can always participate under a temporary name and put
their questions in the chat I assume? In that case they wouldn't mind that their
questions are recorded I guess? I might be wrong.

That's good. Have you had any thoughts about other subject matter experts? Or expanding the subjects, maybe taking a survey?
Perhaps hosted by someone on the other side of the earth?
Or are these for later when the current format is more stable.

For now I won't be doing that. It would take more time and mental capacity to organise that, which I currently lack. I'd appreciate others doing this though! Incidentally the developer dialogues are going on right now, which is kind of like that (though not as technical)
