@skuro Is there a digital meetup tomorrow or none?

skuro11:04:42

@borkdude we will have an online gathering, yes

skuro11:04:09

so far I was trying to setup a presentation and use youtube streaming for that, since I don't know of any free tool that I can use for something similar

borkdude12:04:14

maybe hangouts?

erwinrooijakkers12:04:08

Can setup own server

erwinrooijakkers12:04:48

Jitsi has I think bit less out-of-the-box than youtube video conferencing and takes more setup, but seems more privacy-preserving and less surveillance capitalism. Depending on the needs.

Mno13:04:58

Yay! I thought we were taking a break, I'll join ofc

skuro13:04:58

@borkdude AFAIK hangouts on hair was discountinued

borkdude13:04:25

but does it have to be on air? meetups usually aren't broadcasted to public anyway?

borkdude13:04:40

at least not the Dutch Clojure meetup

skuro13:04:58

it's a matter of how many attendees you can support

skuro13:04:00

also, hangouts require everyone to join with their google account which I have to know so that I can setup the hangouts

borkdude13:04:04

those are two separate issues. I've been on several hangouts in the past weeks with 20+ people. but you just cannot broadcast the stream to youtube anymore.

borkdude13:04:12

that's true

skuro13:04:13

not a biggie, just trying to understand how to set it up

borkdude13:04:29

ehm, actually not true, just sharing the link works

skuro13:04:30

will experiment a bit today

borkdude13:04:15

if you want to test, you could post the link here and we could try to join

skuro13:04:57

sounds like a good idea

gklijs16:04:26

The biggest drawback with YouTube is having a half minute delay + the viewers can only interact by typing. I hardly had any interaction last friday. I understand the drawbacks of hangouts, but as presenter is much nicer if you can at least see (some) people, and don't have such a delay.

Mno17:04:39

I offer myself as guinea pig

Mno17:04:58

@ me to make sure I see it

skuro19:04:27

alright, I wasted quite some time testing out stuff with ObS

skuro19:04:59

I don't think I actually arrived at anything useful, although with a bit of luck I'll be able to use OBS with Hangouts tomorrow

skuro19:04:23

@hobosarefriends I have used hangouts many times, I think I'll be good tomorrow

Mno19:04:47

Roger that!

skuro19:04:54

here's what my plan is in terms of having the event live: ā€¢ I'll share the meetup link here and through meetup / downtomeet ā€¢ we'll be meeting there with whomever wants to interact with each other ā€¢ I'll also have the event streamed to youtube for the future generation of clojure developers that want to laugh at us šŸ˜›
