A brief note: the Social Web Foundation, Qlub and FediHost are presenting a day-long Fediverse conference in Montreal, Canada on February 24, 2026. FediMTL features speakers from across the Fediverse, including Cory Doctorow, Christine Lemmer-Webber, Julian Lam, and yours truly, Evan Prodromou. The theme of digital autonomy for Canada has never been more important. Tickets are on sale now for both in person and streaming attendance. I look forward to seeing you there!
