#Eventbrite to be acquired by #BendingSpoons, following their acquisition of #Meetup.com which caused many users to migrate to Eventbrite in the first place. I think at this point it becomes very obvious that the #Fediverse is the best place to coordinate your meetups, and you have many options to choose from: #Mobilizon, #Gancio and even #Wordpress with the #ActivityPub Event Bridge plugin. Everyone knows Bending Spoon's playbook, enshittification is inevitable.
Announcement! 
with the aim of making the project more community-based, the idea is to have a weekly meeting for anyone who wants to chat, exchange ideas, share knowledge, and contribute to the project.
The first meeting will be at 1 p.m. (UTC) on Wednesday, November 5 on the IRC channel #gancio on irc.libera.chat and on a jitsi channel that will be shared there (and here).
we will talk about the status of the project and of release 2.x
feel free to stop by. 
Last week, I had an online meeting with the developers of #Gancio, #Mobilizon and #LAUTI. We either found out that we had already planned our trip to this year's #FOSDEM or were thinking about it. We spontaneously proposed a last-minute BOF, and I'm glad it was accepted. See you in Brussels! :) @fosdem
And directly afterwards there is the @nlnet meet and greet, great timing! :)
I can't explain how excited I am to be able to speak with @evan tomorrow, May 27th at 14:00 US Eastern time (UTC-4).
If you don't know Evan, he is co-editor of ActivityPub, the W3C standard for decentralized social networking used by platforms such as #Mastodon , #Bonfire , #GoToSocial , #Peertube , #Owncast , #Loops , #PixelFed , #Emissary , #Fedify , #FlohMarkt , #Lemmy , #Piefed , #WriteFreely , #Friendica , #GNUSocial , #Threads , #NodeBB , #Funkwhale , #Gancio , #Mobilizon , #BookWyrm , and MANY MANY MANY MORE + whatever YOU create next!
I've been speaking with folks and they've given him a very special nickname. You'll have to tune in tomorrow of catch the #VOD to catch it.

Einladung zum 3. Digitalen Unabhängigkeitstag in die Bürgerwache Bielefeld
Thema: Wir machen unsere sozialen Medien selber
Am kommenden Sonntag wollen wir Menschen aus den kommerziellen, unsozialen Netzwerken befreien und ins Fediverse holen.
Nach einer kurzen Einführung in die Problematik gibt es praktische Hilfe beim Anlegen eines Mastodon-Kontos auf unserer mit #GlitchSoc aufgebohrten Instanz https://fedifreu.de (oder einer anderen).
Um zu zeigen, dass das Fediverse nicht nur aus Mastodon besteht, stellen wir auch den Terminkalender #Gancio vor.
Schickt eure Familie, Kolleg:innen, Bekannte und Freund:innen hin!
Zeit: Sonntag, 1. März 2026, 14:00 bis 17:00 Uhr
Ort: Bürgerwache Bielefeld – Rolandstraße 16, 33615 Bielefeld, EG (großer Saal)
Eintritt frei. Nazis müssen draußen bleiben.

Has anyone already seen events in Holos?
I'm following gancio accounts and mobilizon accounts and some self written event pages like steelfeed.de
Nothing is shown here.
In theory I love the idea behind an event only view...
Will you bring those views to Fedilab too Tom?
How is that working @apps @HolosSocial ?

Edit: ya conseguimos! Muchas gracias por su aporte. Si todo sale bien en días tendremos un gancio cordobés 
Atención gente de Córdoba 🇦🇷 y demases personas que quieran ayudar a que nos libremos de los muros de instagram para gestionarnos colectivamente:
Está en marcha un gancio (plataforma de eventos) cordobés. Va a ser auto hospedado en una compu cirujeada pero todavía necesitamos pagar el primer año de dominio.
Y somos gente desempleada y precarizada, haciendolo por puro amor a la autogestion y odio a las bigtech.
Si quieren aportar en dineros pueden pedirme el alias y lo paso al privado. De afuera pueden aportar por ko-fi
Necesitamos 8500 pesos argentinos, nomas. Son 2 cafés.
