should we do a shoutout to https://discourse.nixos.org/t/netherlands-nix-meetup/26599 ? And perhaps also the other upcoming ones listed at https://20th.nixos.org/ ? I don't see why not. garbas ? | 15:42:51 |

| Bryan Honof | I'll do it for all upcoming events. | 16:31:39 |
| Bryan Honof | (The small FR is the emoji flag. My font just doesn't have it :P) | 16:31:56 |
| raboof | Yeah I think that looks good! Perhaps add some #NixOS #Anniversary #Meetup #Paris hashtags? :) | 16:34:18 |
| Bryan Honof | Right! | 16:34:27 |
| Bryan Honof | Ok, I'll go ahead and schedule the other posts as well. Feel free to edit them! | 16:37:28 |
| Bryan Honof | Okay, cool. Buffer even shortens the URLs. | 16:38:42 |

played with the 'create post' UI for a bit, looks nice, also with customizations for each network. mastodon clearly the new kid in town, some UI bugs there still, but nothing that should create a problem AFAICS (and otherwise I can edit the post through the app) I do see what you meant with the UI bugs :P | 16:59:01 |

| garbas | I was wondering, what would be best way to interact with the rest of the community regarding social media announcements?
eg.Somebody from community did something I would like nixos accounts to retweet/forward/share/...
Another use case is that other teams would like to post something? Where/How do they contact us? Via issue on GitHub sounds a bit of an overkill. Maybe just writing to us here in this channel would be a good start.
And last use case, which I think we should be doing. Looking for content on discourse (https://discourse.nixos.org/c/announcements/8), reddit (https://www.reddit.com/r/NixOS/, https://www.reddit.com/r/Nix), Hackernews (https://news.ycombinator.com/news), lobste.rs (lobste.rs/t/nix), ... and maybe some other channels.
At the end we need to agree on some policy, what should be announced, how often, what should not be announced, etc... some basic rules.
Also at the end of each month, we would gather this announcements and send them via newsletter. | 07:05:04 |

 @gdesforges:matrix.org | It should indeed be known who to contact to have NixOS accounts share/RT/... content on social medias. I expect that the hardest part for us will be to make it known that it's even possible and they can contact the team to do so. | 12:21:24 |

| @gdesforges:matrix.org | Proactively scanning posts (especially hashtags) is surely something to do as well | 12:23:17 |
| @gdesforges:matrix.org | About rules, what to repost, if there are already specific ideas you have let's write them down. For the rest, they will probably come naturally as it goes? | 12:24:55 |
| @gdesforges:matrix.org | Related to that: where do you write down such information? | 12:27:27 |
| @gdesforges:matrix.org | * Related to that: where do you write down such information? Do we have a github repo? A Notion? | 12:28:03 |

 davidak | you can create a chat room for suggestions and let team members review and vote with 👍/👎. i think everyone can technically, which could be fine. like github review | 08:11:47 |
| davidak | i think commercial projects should be viewed critically, especially when they try to steal nix/nixos or community efforts the show | 08:14:39 |
| davidak | there was this tweet from flox that promoted it as alternative to homebrew on mac
but we want nix to be that alternative! | 08:16:18 |
| davidak | i follow the nixos hashtag in the fediverse. that is a great way to see blog posts, videos etc | 08:18:36 |
