It's Richie@goblin hey we can add images to #koalagator events, just wanting to have more discussion on how this might work. Join in the discussion here: https://github.com/koalagator/koalagator/discussions/59
A few weeks ago I was asking around for an invite to #FOSStodon for our #Koalagator calendar FOSS project only to have folks quickly tell me that drama was afoot.
Sounds like things have settled down https://hub.fosstodon.org/fosstodon-community-statement AND that the project has recommitted to being an inclusive space for marginalised communuties.
Very glad to hear this! Thanks @fosstodon team for all you've done and continue to do for the FOSS community, @Gina especially.
Now, about getting my project onto fosstodon. @Gina any chance of an invite?
Koalagator is a multi-year code revival project of a 10 year old much loved calendaring platform. We have big ambitions to make local community events easier to discover on the open web, away from big tech control.

@residentCodeGuy you asked me recently what feature would be helpful for you to help me with #Koalagator calendar platform.
Well, I've got one that would massivley help. We have a browser extension (firefox/chrom) where you can visit an event ticketing site and click our browser button and it copies the event into the koalagator instance.
Fb have obstificated their webpage making it very hard to read, but we've now realised we could read the ical for the event that they provide.
Would love u to look at adding fb event support to our browser extension, its the most requested feature.

Tip: Install the excellent cli "web-ext" tool from firefox which will give you live code reloading while you muck around w the browser extension (https://github.com/mozilla/web-ext)
Haven’t had much capacity recently, but I cleared some space last night and did some further work on the Koalagator community calendaring platform.
Nothing to show right now, but feels good to get back onto the code and keep moving this forward.
