#FOSDEM will happen on 2025-02-01 and 2025-02-02, we just signed the contract with ULB today!

You're hearing it here first, because Mastodon is the #FLOSS social network. We'll publish official news in a bit :)

We're taking our pgBadger usage to the next level!

Find @ehstanton & @floord at @pgdaylowlands today, they have stickers!

Lightning Talks!! @floord wants to lure more community members to #Mastodon, Albert Offermans talks about how Alliander accelerates grid engineering projects by utilizing #PostgreSQL, Bilge talks about how "Diva: Dive Into AI" puts #DEI first, Teresa Lopes shares different ways to scale your database, Michal Nosek (Percona) uses the pg_tde #PostgreSQL extension for encryption, and finally @ehstanton speaks for the brain 🧠

Very happy to thank @intrbiz in person for all his help to @pgdaylowlands , a well deserved title "High Lowlander"

Not able to make it out to Amsterdam today? Join for the livestream: https://youtube.com/live/ZPR7u44YJKI #PostgreSQL

Nice lightning talk by @floord@hachyderm.io at #pgdaylowlands about #Mastodon! I hope it will lead some more people to the Fediverse.

(Floor; I'm a Postgres DBA by day, but a Fediverse admin by hobby, running mastodon.world, lemmy.world and at least 10 other instances)

At @pgdayuk i think we can safely assume that @vyruss means #PostgreSQL when he says "Ditch Elasticsearch and use a real database for text search"
