IdaBzo | scheduled, goes in 43 minutes (12pm Europe/Berlin); they use linkedin and bluesky as well, so I tagged them in the posts | 09:17:47 |
Pol | I just noticed that the NixOS logo has been updated, in recognition of Pride Month. I understand that this change is meant to reflect and signal that the Nix community is inclusive and supportive of diversity. Don't you think it might be a good idea to accompany this visual change with a short blog post (or official statement) ?
Such a post could briefly explain the reason for the logo update, reaffirm the inclusive values of the Nix community, and outline the stance the project takes on diversity and belonging in open source.
WDYT? | 14:01:03 |
hexa | uh, did anyone remove 2fa from our twitter account? | 14:35:46 |
hexa | cc IdaBzo | 14:35:50 |
hexa | or was that reenabled | 14:36:06 |
hexa | got an email last night | 14:36:11 |

WDYT? I think that would be nice, but I'd probably let that go through SC approval | 15:05:52 |
infinisil | Or just a heads-up at least | 15:07:32 |
Pol | The thing is that it would have been nice to do it at the same time as the logo update | 15:07:48 |
Pol | You know sometimes Google change the logo and when you click on the logo you are redirected to the Google Search related to the logo update... | 15:08:18 |
Pol | It would have been nice to have something similar. | 15:08:29 |
SigmaSquadron | In reply to @drupol:matrix.org The thing is that it would have been nice to do it at the same time as the logo update could still wait for june 28 | 16:00:14 |
SigmaSquadron | not very international, but the stonewall anniversary is when you do everything you forgot to do on the 1st of june | 16:00:38 |
SigmaSquadron | In reply to @drupol:matrix.org The thing is that it would have been nice to do it at the same time as the logo update * could still wait for the 28th of june | 16:00:46 |
IdaBzo | yup, and to set it back, I need someone with an access to webmaster@ email | 17:59:03 |
hexa | that currently forwards to infra@ | 17:59:40 |
hexa | so feel free to DM whenever | 17:59:46 |
| The Worm 🏳️🌈 (he/they) changed their display name from LEGO® Worm™ (Now Only 1 krad!) to LEGO® Worm™ (he/they) (Happy Pride Month! 🏳️🌈). | 22:42:17 |

Pol | Why wait so long ? | 11:13:46 |
SigmaSquadron | In reply to @drupol:matrix.org Why wait so long ? the 28th is possibly the most significant date during pride month. If you care about announcing things during specific dates instead of whenever you remember to, the 28th is when you want to do so. | 11:18:03 |
infinisil | IdaBzo: What are all the accounts that the marketing team is set up to easily post and repost NixCon sponsor announcements to? | 18:50:10 |
infinisil | I'm guessing https://bsky.app/profile/nixos-org.bsky.social, https://mastodon.social/@nixos_org@chaos.social, https://www.linkedin.com/company/nixos-foundation/ and maybe https://x.com/nixos_org/? | 18:52:31 |
infinisil | * I'm guessing https://bsky.app/profile/nixos-org.bsky.social, https://mastodon.social/@nixos_org@chaos.social, https://www.linkedin.com/company/nixos-foundation/ and maybe https://twitter.com/nixos_org/? | 18:53:06 |
lennart | maybe it would be worth it to test mixpost for NixOS marketing? https://mixpost.app/ | 18:53:43 |
infinisil | They're already using some management tool, don't remember the name right now though (starts with a B iirc) | 18:57:22 |
hexa | brevo | 18:59:04 |
infinisil | No not that, that's just for bulk email sending I'm pretty sure | 18:59:57 |
hexa | blargh … it was buffer | 19:03:06 |
infinisil | Yes that! | 19:03:20 |
infinisil | Actually I'll just scratch Twitter, so just BlueSky, Mastodon and LinkedIn. Sponsors can ask explicitly if they want to also have shoutouts other platforms (and then we can decide if we want that). | 19:06:51 |
