FOSDEM 2026 - The first day is over and I summarized the day...<br><br>Like always, I'm attending only the first day which mean the day begins very early in the morning. This year, <a href="/tags/sovereignty/" rel="tag">#Sovereignty</a> was clearly one of the most important topics, but I also had some great talks at the <a href="/tags/proxmox/" rel="tag">#Proxmox</a> stand, with the guys at Vates (<a href="/tags/xcpng/" rel="tag">#XCPng</a>) and of course at the <a href="/tags/freebsd/" rel="tag">#FreeBSD</a> and <a href="/tags/illumos/" rel="tag">#illumos</a> stand. Sadly, they were in the very last corner of the floor hall in building H. Hope they still got enough attention there!<br><br>You can find my notes about the first day in my blog post at: <a href="https://gyptazy.com/blog/fosdem-2026-opensource-conference-brussels/" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="gyptazy.com/blog/fosdem-2026-opensource-conference-brussels/"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">gyptazy.com/blog/fosdem-2026-o</span><span class="invisible">pensource-conference-brussels/</span></a><br><br><a href="/tags/fosdem/" rel="tag">#FOSDEM</a> <a href="/tags/fosdem2026/" rel="tag">#FOSDEM2026</a> <a href="/tags/opensource/" rel="tag">#opensource</a> <a href="/tags/brussels/" rel="tag">#brussels</a> <a href="/tags/conference/" rel="tag">#conference</a><br>

Not a single mask in sight. Very disappointing to see this, especially as we're in a COVID uptick. The number of people in photo 1 who have their hands up is probably roughly equal to how many will leave this conference with COVID or some other respiratory illness.<br><br><a href="https://fosstodon.org/users/scala_lang/statuses/115056704676502452" rel="nofollow" class="ellipsis" title="fosstodon.org/users/scala_lang/statuses/115056704676502452"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">fosstodon.org/users/scala_lang</span><span class="invisible">/statuses/115056704676502452</span></a><br><br><a href="/tags/dev/" rel="tag">#dev</a> <a href="/tags/tech/" rel="tag">#tech</a> <a href="/tags/coding/" rel="tag">#coding</a> <a href="/tags/conference/" rel="tag">#conference</a> <a href="/tags/scala/" rel="tag">#scala</a> <a href="/tags/scaladays/" rel="tag">#ScalaDays</a> <a href="/tags/covidisnotover/" rel="tag">#CovidIsNotOver</a> <a href="/tags/covidisairborne/" rel="tag">#CovidIsAirborne</a> <a href="/tags/longcovid/" rel="tag">#LongCovid</a> <a href="/tags/maskup/" rel="tag">#MaskUp</a> <a href="/tags/accessibility/" rel="tag">#accessibility</a><br>
