Today's #FediverseClub #IRLCoffeeChat was fun!

1st meeting of the #ThirdSpace that is #FediCollective

#PeerTube #cooperative presentation by the scintillating but very human kind Chris Trottier was well-received!

Love connecting face to face with builders, founders, creatives to talk about our experiences,

Pooling together our expertise, skills, and available solutions toward inclusion and diversity in the #OpenWeb helps #fedi become a wonderful place we co-create!

What if a #TechMeetup was more than just tech? 1 of 2

#FediCollective #CoffeeChats is a #ThirdSpace i.e a place outside of home & work where you can connect with people and build community.

It's not just about what but who we're building with IRL! I'm committed to making these events welcoming. Here's what makes our #FediverseClub the best kind of #DWeb gathering:

1. Community First: As an alcohol-free and family-friendly event, the focus is on clear-headed conversations and genuine connection. Feel free to bring your kids and pets along; this is a space where your whole self is welcome

2. Accessible to All: Events are designed to be economically affordable for everyone. Located near a Skytrain station with free parking, we've removed the barriers so anyone can join the conversation and contribute

3. Intentional Connection: The goal isn't just networking; it's to have intentional conversations with developers, designers, and thinkers who are all about building a better #OpenWeb
