ners | @room A sincere thank you also from my side for the amazing weekend! As per usual I've prepared a little feedback ticket here: https://github.com/nix-community/developer-workshop/issues/5 Please take a moment to share your thoughts. This will allow us to organise even better events in the future. 🙂 | 09:32:11 |

ra33it0 | Gruezi I heard this is the place for Nixers in Switzerland. I checked the meetup group but could not find upcoming events, how often do you guys do the meetups? | 10:05:24 |
john-rodewald | Welcome to the group! Unfortunately, you just missed the ZHF event that we organise every 6 months (before NixOS releases). In addition to that, we’ve been trying to get small-scale monthly meetups back on track. | 11:42:03 |

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. :) | 08:46:16 |
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 |

ra33it0 | In reply to @ners:nixos.dev 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. 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. | 10:17:14 |

apeioo | Anyone going to Nixcon? | 12:39:34 |
infinisil | apeioo: Heck yea o/ | 20:45:51 |

apeioo | Would have also liked to go, because I am new to Nix, but sadly I have Zivildienst then and cannot. | 12:45:54 |
infinisil | apeioo: I'd think it would be possible to move that, but not sure 🤔 | 16:39:19 |

Pablo Escodebar | Am I allowed to promote a software related (un)conference from Zürich in here? I would love to have some Nix people sharing their experience and promoting Nix within our community. At the last unconference I pitched a Nix topic and some where interested… and I think there would be much more interest if there were people with more Nix experience pitching topics. | 12:09:51 |
das-g | In reply to @oldaq:matrix.orgAs long as the promotion isn't spam-y I don't see any problem with that. | 12:23:16 |
