Thanks Jup for coming on the #InworldReview show, n #HGSafari grid this was really a great conversation - we all learned a lot, mostly that I need to use more hashtags! #opensim #hypergrid

I guess my multi-tasking abilities will be put to the test tomorrow evening.

For one, there's the second German Hubzilla workshop. This time, I even have to present something myself. Half an hour earlier, Dereos will use its last-Wednesday-of-the-month event to inaugurate a new event sim. I could manage to juggle these two. @Juno Rowland is fairly likely to go; not sure about myself. At least I can simply leave it running.

But then there's also the @HG Safari which is on Wednesdays, too, and which will start half an hour after the Hubzilla workshop. I haven't been there in a while. HG Safaris always require full attention because there's constantly something happening, and you have to walk around the location yourself.

https://hgsafari.blogspot.com/2025/10/a-witching-hour.html on #osgrid for a #hgsafari forest visit with Clairwil Oh

#hgsafari is on again for a new season! two posts about our recent trips are here - both are destinations on #osgrid https://hgsafari.blogspot.com/2025/09/forest-in-fall.html and https://hgsafari.blogspot.com/2025/09/safari-gets-desolate.html

By the way: Thirza Ember of @HG Safari has interviewed me for and featured me and @Juno Rowland in her blog post about the "What Are You Looking For?" group on OpenSimWorld.

You can find the blog post here.

Sad news from OpenSimWorld: Mal Burns, OpenSim's single most important live stream host, has teleported to the Big Sky Platform.

Mal was active in the Fediverse under @Mal Burns Main, @Mal Burns and, specifically for OpenSim, @Metaworld Opensim Social. He ran a weekly series of live streams on YouTube named Inworld Review, co-hosted by Thirza Ember (@HG Safari) and James Atlloud and with guests from all over the Hypergrid. He also regularly participated in Thirza's HG Safari itself, and it's through these events that I got to know him.

These will be some busy days for @Juno Rowland and me in OpenSim...

Right now, the @HG Safari is visiting us at Atlas in Dorenas World. About two dozen avatars on a packed standard region of 256x256m. In fact, some have crossed into neighbouring sims, probably without even noticing. It doesn't help that it's night during the whole hour of their visit.

Right afterwards, we're off to the on-going weekly party over on Dereos.

In fact, today is the official 15th anniversary of Dorenas World. It's the only German grid that has ever managed to live for this long, and it's the third-oldest surviving OpenSim grid now. Only OSgrid, the first public grid from 2007, and AnSky Grid are older.

The anniversary will be celebrated from tomorrow on until Sunday. I'll post the schedule later. Just so much: We've finally managed to get @Rogue Galaxy to perform here.

And next week, on January 25th, Dereos will celebrate its 10th anniversary on a sim built for the occasion..

The final Safari of the year - two posts about two very different destinations - #opensim is so diverse! Thanks to #NyxBreen in particular for his spectacular #EEP art build - what a way to say goodbye to #HGSafari for this year!
