What

FediForum is the global virtual unconference about the Open Social Web (ActivityPub, ATProto, and friends).

When

From 17:00 until 22:00 on the 7^th and 8^th October 2025.

Where

In Rotterdam, in the XPUB Studio on day 1 (October 7^th), and in Varia on day 2 (October 8^th).

FediForum requires a ticket to join, but the university covered participation for XPUB students + guests. You are most welcome to come and join us in person!

How

Open and free participation (only in person attendance)!

We will be connecting collectively to the virtual meeting. No previous knowledge or skills required: the topics discussed won’t just be technical, there will be a lot of discussions about the evolving meaning of social networks, and how open protocols can make them more human and truly social.

On day 2 we will be cooking vegan dinner all together!

More info

• In June 2025, a team of daring XPUB students configured a Mastodon server, thus becoming part of the Fediverse! Visit the related page for more context and information.
• More info about the event here.
• If you have any questions, doubts, or proposals, reach out to Tommi.
