The Fediverse’s favorite unconference, FediForum, is happening on March 19th and 20th. It’s a wonderful opportunity for community members, developers, designers, and builders to come together to share what they’ve been working on, and how to deal with various challenges in the space. Attendees are encouraged to break out into discussions, share their insights, and consider other perspectives.
Themes for FediForum March 2024
Judging from the list of proposed subjects, it’s easy to spot a few recurring themes:
- Trust & Safety – Tooling, Moderator Resources, Moderation and Governance, Regulatory Challenges
- Demos – NodeBB, Distributed.Press, PieFed, ActivityPods, Sora
- Standards – Interoperability, Protocol Extensions, Different flavors of ActivityPub like RDFpub
- Identity – DIDs, Ownership, Identity Re-use across services, identity attestation/verification
Live Coverage
We want to try to do something different for this FediForum: treat it like an Apple WWDC event. We’re going to attempt live coverage of the talks, demos, and events during the two-day unconference. The goal is to provide an insight into major developments happening across the Fediverse, with an emphasis on ideas and initiatives to help make the network better.
We’re currently experimenting with some tools to make it possible, but we think that there will be a lot of big presentations that need to be covered. Keep an eye on our site next week during the conference!
Tickets are Still Available!
You can still hop over to the FediForum site and order tickets to attend. The following pricing tiers are below:
- General Ticket – $40
- Almost Free Ticket – $1.99
- Contributor Ticket – $100
- Platform Employee Ticket – $250
If you have the funds to spare, we highly encourage going with the $100 Contributor Ticket. This helps offset the cost of $1.99 Almost Free Tickets for attendees that might not be able to attend otherwise.
We can’t wait to see what everyone has to share next week! Join us if you’re able, and check in on We Distribute next week for live coverage of event discussions.
