Every year the Values of #FOSDEM are put on display. The resistance to having a CoC. The complete lack of health policy or health precautions. The overcrowding and lack of disabled accommodations. The choice of corporate sponsors. The lack of financial transparency. The decision to platform Jack Dorsey etc.
It's not a safe space, and likely never will be for a whole bunch of reasons.
Yeah, it took me a while to see it too. Do you see it yet?
@dentangle I have avoided FOSDEM for a number of years now. Even as a white man I don't really feel safe or welcome there anymore. I felt differently 20 years ago.
I kind of miss a place to meet my peers, though.
