Thanks so much for these Nix Hours. I don’t know if it comes across in the number of people in attendance or the YouTube view counters, but I find these videos invaluable. Watching them has been the tipping point in me actually feeling like I have the knowledge i need to use the nix ecosystem of tools and learn more on my own as I need to — more so than other learning resources (also good in their own right).

Pausing the Nix Hour
I have decided to pause the Nix Hour for at least August, so that I can put more focus on developing the community governance as part of the Nix Constitutional Assembly. I’m not sure yet when it will be back, but I thank everybody for the support until now!

Thank you so much for these videos. They’re an invaluable resource.
Recently, I’ve been having a lot of trouble accessing YouTube. Any chance we could get the recordings mirrored to a Peertube instance somewhere?
