Oooooh my custom made #TheFutureIsFederated sweatshirt has arrived at a pickup point! Going to retrieve it later today and I hope it turned out ok.

I intend to wear it at #FOSDEM on the big day for the Social Web talks.

All fingers and toes crossed it looks good and fits well. Otherwise I have two other Fedi t-shirts as backups 😅

Quiet public

first world problems, FOSDEM apparel

Oh no! I just unpacked and tried on the sweatshirt. It's a different hue of green than on the site (olive), the writing is HUGE compared to my mockup so I need to stretch it out to get the message read, and lower on the sweatshirt. In short, a fail.

I used to create custom apparel at a local shop (always support your local artisans) but it went out of business after COVID, sigh.

I need to find a new one before FOSDEM. I'm on a mission to get this made 🥲
