A photo of a group of people sitting around a pair of long tables in a pub, all smiling at the camera.

A selfie of three people all smiling at the camera, with various pub tables in the background lit up by multicoloured lighting. We have s0, a white woman with curly brown hair pulled back in a pony tail. Liam, a white man with glasses, short hair and a short greying beard. And then me, also a white man with short hair though significantly more receded than Liam, and a red beard.

Another fedimeet success! 🎉 Great as always to see @thewetmale@aus.social @heygeorgie@aus.social @LapTop006@aus.social @markjustmark@aus.social @s0@cathode.church @NewtonMark@eigenmagic.net @franksting@theblower.au @ausfestivus@aus.social and @fsvo@old.mermaid.town, and many thanks to @yayKM@aus.social for organising!

We even had a appearance from @liamvhogan@aus.social though he had to leave before the first photo was taken so I grabbed a quick selfie as he went past on the way out while @s0@cathode.church and I were waiting at the bar. 😛

Excellent to see @futzle@old.mermaid.town,
@fsvo@old.mermaid.town, and @franksting@theblower.au again, to finally meet @MattHatton@aus.social in person, and to meet new people @LapTop006@aus.social, and @markjustmark@aus.social! (And also @bri7@treehouse.systems but that instance has ended up on my blocklist here, heh.)

A photo of twelve people sitting around a few tables in the corner at the pub, all smiling at the camera. (Sorry Mark, I don't know why your face turned out so red, I think it was light reflecting from the side of the bar next to you!) As per most pubs, the lighting isn't very good or flattering, haha.

Excellent turnout for the fedimeet, thanks as always to @yayKM@aus.social for organising!

Great to see @NewtonMark@eigenmagic.net @s0@cathode.church @vk2gpu@mastodon.radio @heygeorgie@aus.social @ben_hr@old.mermaid.town @thewetmale@aus.social @dimsimple@chinwag.org and @dropbear@aus.social again, and to meet @franksting@theblower.au and @belee@cathode.church!

(Also really good to see and chat to @philbetts@mastodon.social who won't see this, haha.)

It's getting large enough that we're going to be spilling over onto additional tables at this rate!

A very wide angle panorama photo of a bunch of people sitting around a table in a pub, smiling at the camera.

Most excellent fedimeet! It was great to see @fsvo@old.mermaid.town, @NewtonMark@eigenmagic.net, @akent@aus.social, @s0@cathode.church, @dimsimple@chinwag.org, and @dropbear@aus.social again, and to meet @philbetts@mastodon.social (who won't actually see this toot because I have mastodon.social blocked on this instance, haha).

A panorama photo of a group of people sitting around a pair of tables in a pub. Everyone except @thewetmale is looking at the camera and smiling.

Excellent turnout with the Sydney fedimeet, it was great to see @thewetmale @dimsimple@chinwag.org @ausfestivus and @s0@cathode.church in person again, and extra lovely to meet @akent @heygeorgie @dropbear @vk2gpu@mastodon.radio and @NewtonMark@chinwag.org for the first time! 🎉 Big thanks to @yayKM for organising, we'll have to do this again soon!

(Also full disclosure, @thewetmale doesn't actually look that munted in real life, he was in the middle of talking while I was taking the panorama and this was the result. 😅)

A selfie of four people sitting around a restaurant table smiling at the camera. Shlee has long dark hair and a beard, s0 has long curly hair pulled back into a bun, yayKM has short bright red hair, and I have short brown hair and a red beard.

Tonight we had a mini-fediverse meetup, lovely to see @s0@cathode.church again, and to meet @shlee in person!

A photo of five people, three men and two women, smiling at the camera, with a number of partially full dishes sitting on the table.

It was lovely to see @ben_hr@eigenmagic.net and @koosli in person again, and to meet @dimsimple@chinwag.org for the first time!

Definitely would not recommend Time For Thai near Central though, my dish was extraordinarily bland and @yayKM's was inedibly fishy. 👎🏻

A photo of four people, two men and two women, smiling at the camera in a somewhat dimly-lit pub.

Excellent to finally meet @s0@cathode.church and @futzle@aus.social in person, and to see @mikelynch@aus.social again!

Related, christ I forgot how loud pubs are.

A photo of four people sitting in an Irish pub smiling at the camera.

A photo of a slice of dark chocolate cake with white icing on top alongside some berries and a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

The first Sydney Fediverse meet was a great success. It was fantastic to finally see @koosli@aus.social, @ben_hr@eigenmagic.net (and his non-Fediverse wife), and @mikelynch@aus.social in person! Also I had a dark chocolate and Guinness cake and it was gooood.

We've all decided we need to do this again except also with @liamvhogan@aus.social and @s0@cathode.church in attendence next time.
