 Tristan Ross | If it is that promising and the cost isn't ridiculously, we probably could justify it. | 20:49:53 |

 raboof | that's weird - https://chaos.social/@nixos_org/113952112038006234 seems to have gone through now, though? | 09:16:00 |

Interesting, though this is 1 data point. Which is why I'm thinking a trial thing would be a good way to see with 3 groups. For comparison, the Zurich group uses meetup primarily for attendance planning. Most visibility is derived from other means.
So to be clear, my underlying reasoning is: how can we help reduce friction and increase wellbeing for local groups? If the lack of a good, affordable online tool for coordination is a bottleneck, there may be multiple ways of addressing that. | 11:03:22 |
| raboof | I'd love an open/selfhostable platform to allow people to 'follow' groups and get notified when we plan a new one. I looked briefly at https://mobilizon.fr/ and found it a bit confusing, but perhaps I should have a second/closer look ;) | 11:46:45 |

| tomberek | raboof: I'm still having issues with the mastodon posting from Buffer. Any ideas? | 13:27:20 |
| raboof | pretty weird, indeed I see failed posts from 9 days ago and just now, but the post from 5 days ago seems to have made it just fine (https://chaos.social/@nixos_org/113952112038006234) | 13:30:00 |
| raboof | OK I think I figured it out (but you're not going to like it): it seems the buffer 'retry' functionality fails if the post was scheduled for the past. So I updated the scheduled date and then I could send the toots, https://chaos.social/@nixos_org/ 🎉 | 13:34:28 |
| tomberek | Nice! I guess that makes sense... thanks! | 13:35:09 |

 @idabzo:matrix.org | Eventbrite is quite cool unless you have to deal with a waiting list. Lu.ma seems small and relatively new. I also know about joinmobilizon.org (funded by NLnet and NGI-0), though it's not very popular. Sometimes, organizers use Facebook events for the same purpose.
I’m not sure if I can achieve anything in this regard, but I can try to find out if Meetup makes any effort to support non-profits—if you give me the green light. | 19:28:31 |
| @idabzo:matrix.org | oh, thanks! I've missed that :/ | 19:28:50 |

 aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | @tomberek Would you like to order more necklaces for Planet Nix? Sorry for not replying earlier, I was mainly playing games | 01:33:30 |
| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | The shipping time should be still more than enough | 01:34:03 |
| tomberek | Those were super popular at NixCon. I've also started to see them "in the wild" at other unrelated conferences as well, making it even easier to find fellow Nix fanatics. So.... yes, absolutely. | 04:43:58 |

| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | I'll check available couriers | 04:58:41 |
| aleksana 🏳️⚧️ (force me to bed after 18:00 UTC) | And how many pieces? | 04:58:54 |
 infinisil | That would be neat! | 09:04:54 |
