I’m very interested. I run a volunteer community creating projects and mobilising people to create positive change where they live and bring a little more peace and well-being into this world.
Also realising the need to move away from Facebook in order to mobilise a community effectively, rather than just be followed, we began building our own platform 3 years ago (…well, 2 years in Blaze, then starting from scratch last year when Blaze kind of died).
We’ve finally reached the point where our community can begin transitioning away from Facebook, just a few weeks ago, and have been plugging Discourse into the platform to operate as the community building hub. In terms of project management we haven’t developed very far yet, basically just pulling in basic details from Trello, and then referring users there when they want to get active on project building. It’s not ideal, where would i find more info about Participio and is there a working model yet? it sounds like it might be exactly what we were planning to build for that part of the platform.
BTW, we’re also entirely volunteer. No funding, a few of the members chip in for hosting and everything else is entirely run on human kindness
