Vagrant Cascadian<a href="https://social.riley.pub/@robin" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@robin</a> After much hesitation, I decided to go to <a href="https://floss.social/tags/FOSSY2024" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FOSSY2024</a> and was pleasantly surprised by the amount of voluntary compliance... though I suspect that is unfortunately quite rare. The leadership at <a href="https://floss.social/tags/FOSSY" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FOSSY</a> also committed to masking up, which I think was significant.It was also a local conference for me, so a bike commute; I would be a bit more nervous spending long hours on planes or trains or busses.Good luck and hope you manage to stay safe!
