    RE: https://ruby.social/@lrug/117429201646378759 I really appreciate @hlame, Fred, Alessandro and Paolo for keeping LRUG going. And the speakers and companies who step in with talks and venues. Gives me an excuse to meet old (and new) friends in real life. Thank you!

    Spent a bit of time yesterday hacking on a scraper for event listings in London. I&amp;#39;ve wanted a consistently formatted list of stuff going on for a while (and to not have to deal with janky websites, IG etc). Feels kinda useful already, although there is *a lot* of stuff going on. Considering adding old man features like schema.org, musicbrainz, RSS, persistent URLs. #buildinpublic

    I recently moved my bandcamp collection to a Navidrome server running in a Pikapod and today have been trying out the Gelly client (https://github.com/Fingel/gelly) on my ubuntu desktop. It&#39;s minimal and seems to work well. #selfhosted #music
