#fedimeet #aotearoa #wellington this afternoon! Avalon Park, 4pm till people want to leave at the BBQs by Fairway Drive Carpark.
Shared meal with BBQs available for cooking. We will bring oil and BBQ tools in addition to sausages, meat patties and salad.
We only have two positive RSVPs so far, anyone else keen to come?
(CC @richardh @donkey if it’s just you two we will have plenty of meat so maybe one of you could bring something for us all to drink and one of you could bring burger buns and cheese slices? I’ll let you decide between yourselves).
Reminding #LowerHutt #wellington #UpperHutt #PalmerstonNorth #Kāpiti etc folks about our #fedimeet pot luck bbq at Avalon Park this Sunday by the BBQs south of the duck pond from 4-6pm. @MichaelaKHulse and I will bring a bit of meat, a salad and oil and cooking tools.

Avalon Park #FediMeet everyone! Doing my best to be there and would love to meet fellow Mastodontists!
Do you think we could get a critical mass of people who might be interested in a Mastodon-related meetup in the #Hampshire #UK area?? (I'm thinking #Winchester or #Southampton or Basingstoke)
I haven't given up on FediDate, but there hasn't been any followup from anyone else out there - and I don't have the skills or resources to make it happen by myself. That's understandable, with the world basically falling apart at this point.
But I think a lot of people would be happier if they had someone to love and stand with while all this is going on. So I think FediDate's time will come.
I'm not sure if I should be replying to my original post, or do a new one; maybe I'll do both this one time, just in case. I hope that's okay.
@sashin kindly suggested that "FediDate" would be a more apt name for a Fediverse dating service, and I agree. "FediMeet" is still a good name for either A) the current practice of people in the Fediverse meeting in real life, or possibly B) a Fediverse-based app to facilitate those meetings.
For now, I'll use both hashtags as well as "dating". Please follow FediDate as well as FediMeet if you're interested!

I don't want to let this go, so:
If you're interested in a Fediverse-based, non-profit dating service, please follow the #FediMeet hashtag. If you feel that FediMeet-related posts are worthy, please boost them.
And if you have the skills to help make such a service a reality, or know someone who does, PLEASE get in touch with me.
This is something that people really seem to need and want. I think we should make it happen.
