We’re currently doing testing of different self hosting platforms that can be used by community groups to manage their own day for documents and a range of apps.

Specifically we’re looking into platforms that are

1. open source and actively maintained
2. Preferably supports the use of docker
3. Has its own easy-install marketplace (sasy tk upgrade also)
4. Critically includes Single Sogn on suppprt.. so team members can use ONE login across all apps in the platform
5. Nice interface, easy, powerful

Shout out if u have any suggestions.

We’ve tried going full kubernetes but the bar is too high to take our whole team on the journey at this stage.

Also keen not to reinvent the wheel and get behind a good existing project.

#EmergencyAlertAu #July27

If you are in Australia, please take a moment to read this and plan ahead.

The national emergency alert test on July 27 will sound even if phones are on silent or Do Not Disturb. For some people, that matters more than others.

If you are in a domestic violence situation and have a hidden or safety phone, consider where it will be before the test.

Please share quietly with anyone who may need this

Loomio the collaborative decision making tool REALLY needs a mobile app.

Im in communities where some members dont even own a laptop/desktop and these folks arent just mobile first they are mobile only.

Also, NOT having a mobile app is causing exclusionary dynamics as people miss being involved; and then rightly so, push to move away from the tool.

I've made a *pretty crappy* pitch for this in the loomio github issues.

If you care about this also, you can read what I said and add your own thoughts here..
