Day: January 27, 2025

In response to various requests, Linden Lab has announced that a new in-world user group meeting is to launch at the end of January 2025.

The announcement of the Mobile Monthly User Group (MMUG) was made (oddly) via a Feedback portal post by Bridie Linden (have Linden Lab completely given up using their own blogs to make announcement?), who noted:

We will be using WebRTC Voice and text to share updates and listen to feedback. Use the Second Life desktop viewer or Second Life Mobile to join the conversation. We look forward to seeing you there!

– Bridie Linden
