Wow fucking #couchsurfing put up a paywall so you can’t even see any of your past messages or friends without a subscription of 2$ a month, federated couch surfing when?!
@liaizon can be done now, with existing Mastodon/Fediverse; I've seen the Fedi already being used to find short term and emergency accomodation for people but Fedi could do with either groups or a dedicated app. Might be worth investigating *why* Couchsurfing did this; was it simply for basic running costs or to pay lawyers/PR people following safeguarding failures and criminal cases a few years ago?
@vfrmedia @liaizon I added an accommodation ontology to the sharing system in Epicyon recently.

@bob this would do the job (BTW I'm not getting notifications again from your posts, luckily I saw this in the first column).

Is there any way I can see a demo of this sharing system? (I did look on your site but couldn't find it)..

@vfrmedia @bob also didn’t get a notification of this from bob and only see this now that I am looking back at the thread.
