Online open tech meetups relevant to OAE folks
Let's make a list of online open tech meetups relevant to OAE folks and try to keep it up-to-date.
Update 2023-07: I kind of abandoned this thread (and pretty much everything except baseline survival) over the past couple of years, due to suffering a complete life collapse at the end of 2020/ start of 2021. I'd love to see it refurbished and brought up-to-date. If anyone has any info about upcoming online events - either one-offs or regular meetups - please share!
Conferences and other annual or one-off events:
DWeb meetup (monthly?) - hosted by the Internet Archive (using Zoom 馃槚). Next meetup starts at 16:30 UTC, on September 22. Topic is escaping "Big Tech": https://www.eventbrite.com/e/dweb-meetup-if-big-tech-is-toxic-how-do-we-build-something-better-tickets-120479309859
The 2020 ActivityPub conference is also being held online, opening on October 2, using Big Blue Button: https://conf.activitypub.rocks/#roadmap
Regular meetups:
Open Tech Will Save Us - virtual meetup with invited speakers, second Wednesday of every month at 5pm UTC, using Jitsi and matrix.
Agaric's "Show & Tell" - weekly on Wednesdays at 11:00 - 12:00 ET, using Big Blue Button.

There's a group of us coming together to put on an online conference about the fediverse, modelled on the 2020 ActivityPub Conference, and a series of monthly online meetups modelled on Open Tech Will Save us. We'd love to have a few more people join the steering group, especially if that would diversify the team. We could also benefit from volunteers to take on a range of discrete tasks, such as helping with outreach and promotion. If you or anyone you know may be willing to help, please get in touch
