Viktor | I guess most importantly, what would SCION mean in the long run for my single user AS | 11:49:15 |
matthewcroughan | I think SCION probably doesn't impact net neutrality positively or negatively | 11:49:48 |
matthewcroughan | It gives ISPs more control over the flow of traffic, but also the user at the same time | 11:50:14 |
matthewcroughan | Since it is multipath you would just get two ISPs and use the available paths they give you right? That can only be a good thing. | 11:50:53 |
Viktor | would it impact ISPs such as telekom that like to leverage there user base to make peering a profit center? | 11:51:11 |

matthewcroughan | In reply to @viktor:kleen.org would it impact ISPs such as telekom that like to leverage there user base to make peering a profit center? Probably, since it encourages path diversity, and multipath | 19:31:56 |

ners | Meetup.com has increased their price from $10 to $20 per month, so I'm considering moving our group to a self-hosted libre platform. das-g has already suggested this in the past, and this price increase is a nice excuse to finally do it.
Any suggestions what we could use?

I do wonder if we won't lose out on discoverability then, how many people found the group through meetup? | 09:34:51 |
infinisil | Could maybe do a poll | 09:35:08 |
infinisil | This would be the same reason why we're still using GitHub | 09:35:29 |
ners | In reply to @infinisil:matrix.org I do wonder if we won't lose out on discoverability then, how many people found the group through meetup? My anecdotal experience so far has been that very few people find the group through Meetup, because a) few people use meetup to begin with (many new Nixers register on meetup just to attend our events), and b) meetup's own discoverability is really suboptimal. If you put "nix zurich" in meetup's search, you can't find our group unless you know the UI very well. | 09:36:44 |
ners | Just recently we reached out to some college campuses around Switzerland to spread the word of the upcoming ZHF: | 09:38:59 |

ners | Hopefully they'll put up these posters on bilboards. :) | 09:39:52 |

nerevarthelord | I'm a newbie here and I am here thanks to meetup.com.
I was just looking around for some nerd meetups and found nixers group there. Have never heard of nix before that, but now I'm interested in learning it further and trying it.
If you want this kind of "fresh fish" joining - I think meetup.com is a good source for those. Otherwise, if you're looking only for experienced Linuxoids - it might be worth replacing meetup group with a gemini site :) | 12:29:30 |
ners | That's amazing, welcome aboard! | 12:44:02 |

I've heard more hackerspace moving away from meetup for this reason. Also closed source, so no fun :-) | 19:23:50 |
Wheeze_NL | In reply to @koen:procolix.com I will be coming to the Hackatohon with Robert Hensing (roberth) and Wheeze_NL :) Yes! Looking forward to meeting you all! | 19:24:29 |
@koen:procolix.com | We will be arriving on Friday evening and driving back on Monday morning. There is still room in the car for one more person (especially if that person has a driving license) :) | 19:25:16 |
