The "onFOSS-LAN" started as an idea by [hribhrib](https://hribhrib.at) to host a LAN-party-like experience online. Yes, the pun with LAN instead of WAN-party was intended but didn't ripe well, however, what instead did ripe well was the whole event! Only one year after the first public onFOSS-LAN another host joined the team: [DeathByDenim](http://jarno.ca/). Even more people got together to bring this experience to everyone that was interested in FOSS-Gaming, and group-effort hosting started to sprout, mostly by people of the [LibreGaming](https://libregaming.org/) community. After 15 sucsessfully hosted events it is time for some changes.

Another issue was the reachability of the upcoming onFOSS events. Although, there was a XMPP/Matrix channel from provided by the community, it was hard to reach out to new people. Thanks to poVoq over at [FreeGameDev](https://freegamedev.net/) there is now a proper bridged channel which also supports IRC in addition. In addition to that, onFOSS is now providing a RSS-feed (also already this post) to build a foundation for further automation of announcements.
### Mastodon
There will also be a onFOSS representation on a Mastodon instance (Probably: https://floss.social/) to reach out further.

### PeerTube
There were already some videos made from footage of onFOSS events, however again, spread out and not findable anymore once one lost the link. Therefore, we happily announce an official onFOSS video channel on (TBA)

### Unofficial
Due to RSS, the community can make automated announcements on their own that bring further visibility outside the onFOSS-bubble. For example, there is a Discord-Server just for the announcements and not bridged to the main communication channel due to privacy and proprietary concerns, but if someone prefers to get notified over there this is now also possible.
