AntanicusTFW a bottom-up movement willing to actually implement left-wing policies, that is coop-friendly and self-organized uses a Facebook page as their main organizing tool...
Matt Noyes@Antanicus Guilty as charged! The problem is that the first step -- out of FB's golden cage of convenience into the world of community self-organization is not an easy sell, as we all know. My transitional policy is to use both and always promote cooperative or FLOSS tools. #socialcoop #degooglisons #deletefacebook
Clayton Dewey@Matt_Noyes @Antanicus Yes, that's a great first step.
Also, am I right that it's the group functionality that they use the most? This seems like a serious gap in the FLOSS ecosystem. Someone please speak up if you know of good alternatives here.
I wonder if #Drutopia can help in this space.
neil 🍄@clayton @Antanicus @Matt_Noyes Depends on your definition of good, but I see #hubzilla as an increasingly positive alternative for this.
@neil @Matt_Noyes @Antanicus i've seen #hubzilla referenced in a few different conversations now. I'll check it out. Have either of you used it?
Pierre B.@clayton Hello,
I am currently starting some experiments with hubzilla. I was previously running a Diaspora pod (for 5 years), and I was really hooked by the promises of Friendica/Red with a real portabily in the Federation + Fediverse. It looks like this future is now completed by Hubzilla! I will report my progress here. I already have one instance running behind a nginx reverse proxy and I am currently planning to install two more on other servers for testing.

A little update : I have two more hubs running and I am currently testing nomadism… which works! I will summarize somewhere how I have installed behind a reverse proxy. (1. manually edit the urls in your navigator to add an 's' to http all along installation forms 2. allow your server to talk to himself through valid https). I also plan to present one possible massive usage of hubzilla in higher education and research (starting in french).
