@pluralistic talk is totally typical, he's a good speaker and answers questions well, just watch the CCC talk. Interesting to hear him speak directly "to" Canadians I guess. Best takeaway point for me was that we should not be afraid of USA reaction to Canada being adversarial since USA isn't gonna not react badly no matter what we do. #FediMTL
#FediMTL I know the MC is a corporate events guy just doing his thing, but strike two is asking folks asking questions to mention their name and *job*. Defining yourself by your job is quite a depressing framing. Corporate networking jobspeak 馃様
People who wanna mention their relevant affiliations will do so anyways.
#FediMTL Question:
"What does the Fediverse have for influencers?"
Who cares? I don't! Hopefully nothing, let 'em rot.

I do love having an effective bilangue MC. I hope people watching online are learning about what it's like in a bilingual city like Montreal!
Missed opportunity when someone asks a question about age verification and says "explain it to me like I'm 5".
@n00q awesome! I can't wait to see you there.
