Organizers Log:
I started announcing FediCon 2026 now that we have the location & the date decided.
Some things still to do:
• update the website
• put out a call for speakers
• start trying to figure out the after-parties
• see if can get some co-organizers to join
• other stuff
🚨 BIG NEWS: FediCon 2026 is heading to FOSSY! 🚨
We are joining forces with the Free and Open Source Software Yearly (FOSSY) this summer.
📅 When: August 6th–9th, 2026
📍 Where: UBC campus in Vancouver, BC, Canada
Save the dates! 🚀🌐✨
August 2025, I attended #FediCon and gave a talk.
My FediCon 2026 talk will be about Loops.
See, back in Aug 2025, Loops was a mvp that didn't federate and wasn't open source.
After I got back from FediCon, I started building a proper webUI and backend, and later a new and much better mobile app.
Then in October, we added federation support. November brought Duets, Playlists, Pinned Videos.
December, I shipped the For You algorithm
You've watched 675 days of FYP vids, just on loops.video ✨
FediCon 2026 will be part of FOSSY.
We are still trying to figure out the exact days for FediCon @ FOSSY. But, it will be 2 of the days between August 6th and 9th.
We are also planning to do a joint session between FediCon @ FOSSY in Vancouver with the Fediverse & Social Web track at COSCUP in Taiwan.
I should be providing more details about FediCon 2026 this week.
Right now I am just posting about it using the #FediCon and #FediCon2026 hash-tags.
@[email protected] there a #FediCon account? Or shall we follow you for updates?
I have to make sure I'm there this year, so I want to make sure I can start scheduling things as early as possible. 😁

#FediForum2026 is coming up in April, 28th - 30th. If you don't know what #FediForum is, it's an online #unconference where we all get together, talk about what projects folks are working on, meet each other, etc. I've been to two of them last year and I've met so many fantastic folks there.
What other #conference are people going to that is related to the #Fediverse ?
I know #Fedicon is sometime later this year. I've already missed #FOSDEM but that'll come around again, next February I think?
