azy: Core has taken over the MCW youtube, which hosts the coffee chats. They are free to do them if they want.
-
needmoney90
I wouldn't really call it new since the coffee chats still exist
-
needmoney90
well. I think?
-
needmoney90
That's up to core
-
needmoney90
The meets are a similar format to the coffee chats
-
azy
well im a vegan so that is disappointing to hear

dEBRUYNE could you update this SE guide mentioning that it's not necessary to synchronize a full blockchain and then prune it anymore, but a pruned node can be synced from scratch?

-
ErCiccione[m]
btw i still encounter people who are unaware of the fact that pruned nodes exist. Wondering what can be done to fix that.
-
dEBRUYNE
ErCiccione[m]: Yes, will update it later today
-

Thanks

What was the back story to the Monero Community Workgroup YouTube channel being taken over by Core, and for SGP's Coffee Chats effectively moving to the Monero Space channel and being re-named Monero Meet?
-

Also, was a shame to hear that Sarang won't be renewing his CCS this time around. Perhaps we can put together a post on the /r/monero with a brief rundown of his accomplishments thus far, and let the community share their thanks. Am optimistic he will stick around going forward, but still, will be the end of an era also.

john_r365: Doug and I split off to do our own thing, and we left the channel and Coffee Chat name
-
john_r365
Ok! Won't pry any further. Quality on the latest Monero Meets has been excellent. Both in terms of content and audio.
-
john_r365
Also the conversation with Samourai was fascinating
-

thanks!

rehrar: could you add Monero Konferenco as an agenda item for this week's community meeting
-
ajs-mob
COVID restrictions in some countries are being extended until March and it seems vaccines won't be available until at least mid-2021 according to some experts.
-
ajs-mob
Should we push Konferenco to 2022, make it a virtual event, or go on with the conference even with the risk of government restrictions, low ticket sales and turn out.
-
dEBRUYNE
john_r365: As far as I could see, it is more intended as a break / hiatus than a farewell

I would throw in multiple Fortune 500 companies have recently said they're WFH until July/Aug 2021 (Microsoft, Intel, Facebook, Google, HP among them). If they're not confident I believe any earlier would likely endanger their employees/revenue any physicalness is simply out of the question I think
-
xmrscott[m]
Especially given all the potential travel bans

I guess MCC will be a testbed of sorts for virtual konference

This "seems" a nice opensource chat protocol..

Not sure if a Monero chat (aside from IRC) was required/needed
-
needmoney90
Yet another chat client? I'll pass. After wire, briar, telegram, reddit, IRC, signal, mattermost, rocketchat, cryptocat, discord, slack, and probably more that I'm missing, I think we have enough (without some substantial reason)

oh right that one

Matrix is love, Matrix is life

john_r365
dEBRUYNE - thanks for the clarification. That'd be great news. Had interpreted it as more of a farewell - but then again, it was only second hand info.
-
rehrar
needmoney90: threema is going open source soon
-
rehrar
we need to add it to the list
-
needmoney90
Pls no
-
rehrar
We should have Monero use Loki's one, Session.
-
needmoney90
Nooo

What always amused me, phone numbers and e-mails are global systems, but chat clients... Noooo, every speck on the Internet's map wants their own.
-
needmoney90
Email is a global system?
-
sech1
I mean one protocol
-
needmoney90
I wouldnt even say that's the case anymore. There's so many different feature sets supported by different email providers that the landscape has become fragmented
-
needmoney90
gmail being a large component of the break from standardization

Matrix probably makes the most sense. I tried Jami and I'm not going back
-
sgp_
wait, that's ambiguous lol
-
sgp_
I am not using Jami again
-
sgp_
with Threema being FOSS soon, I would much rather use that than Wire
-
xmrscott[m]
Oh, was Jami really that bad?
-
xmrscott[m]
Curious as I haven't really had any bad experiences using it w/ family
-
sgp_
I tried it with Diego and it was very bad
-
xmrscott[m]
Like the UI, had broken functionality, or both?
