@leah We’ve tested #Zulip for the @ergol project and liked it a lot, but found it’s a rather specific approach — a bit like an instant mailing-list I guess?

Kevin Karhan :verified:

#discord IS LITERALLY THE PROBLEM!

It's worse than any #IRC, #Mumble or even the old #TeamSpeak & #Skype for that matter.
It combines the disadvantages of #Forum, #paywalled #documentation, #chat and #voicechat with 0 redeeming qualities (unlike #Zulip & Mumble & #XMPP+#OMEMO) it's just an #InformationBlackhole!

I'm shure fecking #dread has better moderation and I'd rather use #MicrosoftTeams + #Slack cuz those at least have proper #moderation tools.

And I'd rather subscribe to the #LKML and see my inbox getting hosed than using any shitty #SaaS!

Case in point: I'd rather #SelfHost all my comms infrastructure than to ever use something like Discord or any other #GDPR-violating SaaS that is just enshittification.

I'd rather recommend people to instead choose a tool that does everything but horrible to go with multiple smaller & good tools

Public Chat? IRC!
Group Voicechat? Mumble.
#Documentation? #mkDocs-material.
1:1 Chats? XMPP+OMEMO.
E2EE Group Chats? #deltaChat.
E2EE Calls? #WebCall.
Filehosting? #IPFS, #BitTorrent, oshi.at, etc. ...

Check @alternativeto and @european_alternatives for options.

Discord's latest update just put up a floating ad covering part of the UI. You have to watch a video ad, or hover over it long enough for a initially invisible dismiss button to show up. I've been wanting to switch Pallets over to zulip.com, this seems like a good reason to. #Discord #Zulip

BlueSky folks! I run a #Zulip server for some maths & public health #research collaborators + mentees. 🤓🧪

Anyone interested in designing a logo and/or banner for the server? I could probably only pay b/w 25 - 50 USD.

I'd love to highlight original, non-AI artwork. 🎨

Hello Fediverse! o-o.tools is a new hosted service for software teams. We are striving to pull together the best open source alternatives to the big players (Github, Slack, Trello, Confluence, etc) and have bundled Forgejo, Zulip, Vikunja, and An Otter Wiki into one private integrated service. Check us out:

Howdy Fediverse - I'm looking for some folks I can discuss running an online community using #zulip instead of #slack or #discord and what their experiences have been. Is anyone around willing to share their experiences so I can help improve the #linux on #riscv community experience?

Bhante Subharo :xmpp:

@axbom I too have been doing some similar evaluating of alternatives. I would recommend adding:

- #Zulip (Slack, #Mattermost competitor) More info: c.im/@sbb/114034480079879818
- #Conversations/ #Gajim/ #Prosody (is similarly E2E encrypted, but additionally federated, unlike Signal), this is my #XMPP "stack" at present (more info: c.im/@sbb/114032786446300932 )
- #Deltachat (is federated, unlike #Signal) More info: c.im/@sbb/114043962394278098
- #flarum , a forum similar to Discourse, but will run on a #RaspberryPi, unlike Discourse
- #calibre-web for your ebook collection
- #shiori, for private cloud bookmarks

@jakob Ich habe vor ein paar Jahren auch mal mit #Matrix gekämpft. Cooles Konzept, aber zumindest damals eine Katastrophe zum Aufsetzen und Konfigurieren.

Hat sich anscheinend nicht wirklich verbessert.

Ich kann #zulip empfehlen.

Bryan Redeagle :bc:

I've been taking a look at Zulip. There's a lot to like about it. I especially appreciate that it's fully open source, and they have a lot of good documentation on self-hosting.

The topic concept makes it feel like a mix between Slack and a forum. Or like email, but you only get emails from select people.

#chat #zulip #SelfHosted

Kevin Karhan :verified:

@cwebber yes, and we already have options for that:

#IRC & #XMPP+#OMEMO, #Zulip, etc. for #Chat.
#JitsiMeet, #WebCall and other #WebRTC-based comms.
#Mumbke, #SIP and other #VoIP solutions.
#OnionShare, #Wormhole, #oshi, #BitTorrent & #IPFS for #Filesharing.
#Nextcloud et. al. for collaboration.

"Het e-mailplatform is volledig redundant en loadbalanced uitgevoerd, en bovendien gespreid over twee datacenters. De loadbalancing maakt het mogelijk om eventuele storingen op te vangen en onderhoud te verrichten"

Met deltachat via mail ben je heel eind op weg.
Aan welke chat oplossing zit je dan te denken? #Matrix #xmpp #deltachat of #zulip (geen E2E). Het grote probleem is de uitwisselbaarheid met behoud van de E2E.

@xandra I'm so happy that someone's doing what I wanted to[1]. I'd be happy to write as well as contribute during review process if someone needs contributions.

Sadly, I've decided to post what I have worked on for #FlakeMag in my blog, but in the spirit of 5th code jam[2], I could write a how-to article about setting up swarms of virtual machines on #Linux.

Alternatively, I can write an entry-level article about how to archive web pages and scrape stuff easily with #python (ugh) and/or #typescript.

Even more alternatively, as the most "good-interenetey" option, I can write an article about how and why to use #zulip for team and community management: guidelines, topic structures, etc.
