It feels good to be on stage again after a few months off, ending the year with a bang on the @yowconf.bsky.social roadshow #YOW25

A very full on day but a wonderful one, back at the stadium for #DDDPerth 2025! It's been such a pleasure to be involved with @dddperth.bsky.social over the past 8 years and to see such support from the community
Congrats to the entire committee, we did it again! Now for a well deserved rest

Getting the final things ready for @dddperth.bsky.social this weekend and taking a look at my name badges from previous years (I swear I should have a 2017 one somewhere)
Just a couple more days before I can add another to the collection!

Do people genuinely group their browser tabs together? I feel like the only time I ever have a group is when I accidentally make one by dragging a tab wrong and I genuinely haven't ever felt a need for this feature

Over the next month, @jake.ginnivan.net and myself will be working with the speakers to help them prepare for the big day!

I love volunteering at Fringe! (Well the Perth one), this was the first year in a very long time I haven't done it and I really missed it!
Enjoy! I've seen some spectacular performances there, often ones I would not have gone to otherwise
