In case you missed it live, my #MatrixConf talk is now available to rewatch. Some of my thoughts on the challenges of DSA compliance in decentralised environments: youtu.be/P5S4rTR6a9c?...
A yellow, empty Berlin subway train at an empty platform, doors open, everyone has already departed to Berlin central station.
The #MatrixConf has left Berlin 🇩🇪, for now. I love to scroll through the photos in the Matrix guest book everyone created together at the closing, the conference had such a nice vibe. 📸 See you all again in France, October 2025! 🇫🇷👋

The first ever #MatrixConf is going great, so many people, ranging from researchers to practitioners, companies to government organizations. 😄 First time I heard from the Matrix efforts of the Swiss post for a nationwide communication system, especially for B2C cfp.matrix.org/matrixconf20... 🇨🇭
A screenshot of a dashboard showing CO2 levels across five rooms in a conference. CO2 levels are running between 508 and 693, with some dramatic spikes here and there. (The REALLY dramatic spikes are when someone picked up the sensors to inspect them up close. Don't worry, our rooms never actually had 6000 ppm CO2! We maxed out at about 1500 ppm CO2 yesterday.)

A picture of a venue with many people taking breakfast
With so many people chatting around and getting their breakfast together the #matrixConf is starting to feel like a nice group trip 😁
Well gosh, I'm glad we required masks 😂 If we use this venue again (and we definitely will when we return to Berlin), I've got some ideas about how to manage airflow differently.

He said it! Given the massive success #matrixConf already is, we will be back in 2025 and it will be in France!
Super psyched to be in Berlin for the first #MatrixConf. Super proud of this community.
Look at that massive room of 150 people overflowing so much we had to live stream the opening remarks to a second room on the venue at #matrixConf
Couldn't make it to the #matrixConf but you don't want to miss out on the talks? We've got your back!
Head to https://2024.matrix.org/watch and watch the talks in real time, starting at 10:00 CEST tomorrow

Annnnd the air quality monitoring array has been deployed at #MatrixConf! Can you guess which room the BarCamp is starting in? 😂
Tomorrow will be the real test of the venue's ventilation, as we're expecting about 4x the attendees that we have today.
We take the […]

Gooooood morning, #MatrixConf! Can't wait to see you all in person over the next few days.
And if you can't make it, worry not -- we'll be live streaming the talks starting tomorrow! Visit our website later today for more info on that.
That’s precisely the kind of vibe we were going for the BarCamp day at the first-ever #matrixconf. Sweet and cozy!
Come to the bright side, we have… bretzels!
