Michal Kohutek<p>My talk at <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/linuxappsummit" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>linuxappsummit</span></a> in Tirana, Albania.

Brage Fuglseth<p>Lots of good talks were given at this year's <a href="https://sunny.garden/tags/LinuxAppSummit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LinuxAppSummit</span></a> — but the 24 hours of livestream footage are a little messy to navigate. I've extracted the talks into individual videos, created branded thumbnails and posted them on the LAS YouTube channel for easy browsing and sharing.
