 ra33it0 | Wow that's cool I will make sure I will be around next time.
My question regarding the meetup is what is the main challenge getting it back on track or making a weekly?
Are there so few nix users in switzerland or are there other reasons?
I am asking since I am in the processes of moving to Switzerland, and right now part of the weekly NixOS meetup with about 15 attendees.
I think it would be great to make this possible in Switzerland as well.

 ners | Wow, weekly is quite intense. I’ll be happy if we have a steady monthly thing going. 🙂 | 12:51:40 |
| ners | I’d say the biggest challenge is simply organisational: someone needs to take initiative to find a time and venue for it to happen, think of what we’ll do, and try to convince everyone it’s a good idea to attend.
That someone is currently me, but I’d love to have help with any of these topics. | 12:52:42 |
 Fabio Lenherr | What did you usually do during the monthly meetings? E.g how long were they etc | 14:59:58 |
 infinisil | We only had one so far, but we just chatted for a couple hours in the evening :) | 16:33:54 |
| Fabio Lenherr | Sounds nice as well, for that even an open space would be fine during summer. | 16:34:56 |

Wow, weekly is quite intense. I’ll be happy if we have a steady monthly thing going. 🙂 Interesting,
Imo it depends how the meetups are done, if it includes finding new venues or having talks it would be very though to do a weekly that's for sure.
If its just people coming together, hacking together or just hanging out its more manageable.🙂
But I think its also key to have permanent place otherwise consistency is difficult. | 09:50:00 |
| ners | You’re right, if we had a reliable, dedicated venue, that’d relieve some stress indeed. | 09:50:42 |
| ra33it0 | When I am there I would be down to help you in making it more frequent but it probably wont be before September. | 10:04:15 |
| ra33it0 | Another question I had is what is your guys opinions on nix adoption industry wise in Switzerland.
I heard mixed things, some say the industry is very resistant to even try it out and most work comes from US or EU company's if any.
Others say its great and there is way more work than people and lots of interesting tech companies who want do use it.
It would be great to hear your opinions.
