Brilliant recap of @friendlyrb.com, especially if you (like the writer) have been a skeptic of the value of travelling to conferences: schembri.me/new-experien...

That’s the second stop of the #rubytriathlon over. @friendlyrb.com was amazing, such a welcoming and inclusive conference that lives up to its name. Looking forward to @euruko.org this week!

Fun fact about @friendlyrb.com - no matter how low social skills you have, you end up hugging with dozens of people and saying "see you next year" 🤗 Magnificent work @adrianthedev.com @lucianghinda.com @jakob.codefrwd.com @stefancosma.xyz @alexmarinescu.com 👏

Shout out to @friendlyrb.com on setting the benchmark on organizing a local, cozy, friendly Ruby conference. What a great team!

do you like learning about how to accidentally delete your production database? I just gave a talk at @friendlyrb.com about how SQLite creates new ways to cause outages, and you can read the blog post version here andre.arko.net/2025/09/11/r...

Having the best time in Bucharest 🇷🇴 after @friendlyrb.com

This was a banger of a talk, coming from one of the nicest people I've met at @friendlyrb.com.

I had an absolutely wonderful time speaking about versatility at @friendlyrb.com yesterday 💜 thank you so much for having me!

Somehow I ended up winning @jakob.codefrwd.com ‘s Friendly show at @friendlyrb.com yesterday 🤣 I got a zillion of bags of pufuleti (an airy corn snack v similar to Spanish gusanitos) as the prize 🤣 I managed to give all of them away! To conf participants and random people at the after party bar 🍻

I’ve completely lost my voice after the two days of @friendlyrb.com 🤣 This is the 2nd time in my life this happens. The first time was a year ago right after @friendlyrb.com 🤣 This time at least Rails World came first so I could give my talk with voice! Is this enough proof of how epic Friendly is?🥹

Had a wonderful time at @friendlyrb.com. Met so many nice and interesting people, my mind and heart are full. Thanks to @lucianghinda.com, @adrianthedev.com, @jakob.codefrwd.com, @stefancosma.xyz, @alexmarinescu.com, and everyone else for making this happen! ❤️

Coffee in Romania has been so consistently delicious so far, it’s excellent everywhere! What’s your secret, people??

Aaaand it’s a wrap! Thanks to everyone who made @friendlyrb.com possible and to all the equally friendly folks who attended the conference. It’s been a blast. Already looking forward to meeting you again at future Ruby-centered gatherings! 👏🏻 #friendlyrb

Day 2 of why I think you should join @friendlyrb.com this year. Let's talk about the people: Every single edition I participated in so far, I encountered so many interesting people, and I enjoyed so many fascinating and inspiring conversations. #Ruby #Rails #Conference

Ok. I’m doing it. Getting back into running. I have a long way to go but looking forward to running a 5k together in Amsterdam at Rails World, in Bucharest at @friendlyrb.com, and in Vaiana do Castello at @eurukoconf.bsky.social

Day 3 of why you should join @friendlyrb.com, let's discuss the venue: The event is taking place in Romania at the Apollo111 Theatre. Located in the city center, it's a genuine theater experience.

We did promise a surprise…

I was lucky to be one of the original triathlon-nine, and I'm very much ready to do it again this year! 💎❤️🏃🏻‍♀️‍➡️ (especially as there's no swimming involved 🤣)

Final lineup update on FriendlyRB! September 10-12 in Bucharest 🇷🇴 Why you should come: ✨ Network with your Ruby community IRL 📚 Learn beyond just Ruby - SaaS, product, marketing 🏰 Enjoy beautiful Bucharest (aka "Little Paris") Thread and video below 👇

The VAT will increase by a tiny amount in Romania in 3 days, so if you want to benefit from the current ticket prices, this is a good time to buy. It will only be a 2% increase, but maybe you want to use that money for a good coffee in the city :) friendlyrb.com
