Federating Mobilizon : one more step towards de-facebooked events

There is a new development to our future alternative to Facebook: different Mobilizon installs can now federate with each other.

@xosemPues sinceramente estaba considerando hacerme una camiseta o una gorra con mi "avatar" del fediverso.Y acerca del enlace de #meetup que comentas, tiene pinta de interesante, pero:a) lo tengo bastante mascadob) la mayoría de los que van a ir serán de los que aplaudan pero luego no van a echarle ganas a desintoxicarse de Google a nivel de navegador, buscador o Sistema Operativo, sinceramente.1/2

Watching all of this on #meetup and thinking about business.

Single suppliers and single customers are death. I don't care if you're selling books or making car parts, buying meds or lumber.

Any service you use can become untenable at very short notice. Have alternatives in mind at all times. Be prepared to migrate immediately.

♲ @jina@mastodon.design.systems: This is terribleRT @securestep9If you are using #MeetUp it's time to look for an alternative provider: from November they will charge you $1 per RSVP of a FREE event, so if you have 1000 attendees RSVP-ing to your FREE meetup you as the organiser will be charged $1000 per meetup www.meetup.com/lp/paymentchang…🐦🔗: twitter.com/securestep9/status…cf.mastohost.com/v1/AUTH_91eb3…

Folks, the one thing that #meetup solved was not "RSVPs for events", it was getting events in front of a motivated community and promoting them. Rebuilding the RSVP functionality isn't going to wrestle anyone from Meetup's new changes. What we need are folks who are willing to try out alternatives and report back to their community on what works best for them.

http://gettogether.community already exists and has users on it. Try that first and let's get the "community" part of meetup started.

All the #Meetup hate is justified..

Yet, I have didn’t see anyone talking about alternatives, whereas @Framasoft is literally building a free and open source alternative as we speak and they deserve every piece of attention and support for it possible.

Go ahead and take a look: https://joinmobilizon.org #mobilizon

PS: And put your money where your mouth is

Just added this to our #meetup events:

"Reminder: This is a free group. There is no charge to RSVP. If Meetup asks you to pay to RSVP please head to https://gettogether.community/michiganusrgroup/ to RSVP there.

"The only reason we ask folks to RSVP is to determine if we'll have enough seating. Usually this is not an issue so if you haven't RSVPed (or don't feel like paying to RSVP) please either use Gettogether or just show up. We still would love to have you.

Seriously, we need to get the community that was on Meetup off there and onto platforms like Gettogether.community (http://gettogether.community) before this whole house of cards comes down in flames. #meetup

The hits just keep coming with WeWork:

Report: WeWork could run out of money as soon as next month:

https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2019/10/wework-adam-neumann-could-run-out-of-money-as-soon-as-next-month

Apparently that IPO was how they were going to pay for things, and when someone took a look at what WeWork was actually worth everything fell apart.
