Hi guys, same Iranian guy here, first I want to say I really appreciate you guys helping me, love you guys you all are genuinely amazing people.
I read all your comments in my previous post and one thing I realized I’m not qualified for this at all. This is too dangerous and puts my life and many of my friends at risk.
So in the spirit of being pragmatic here and finding best solution meanwhile I figure that out. Where can we have a private community with moderation and admin tools and multi-topic discussions on the fediverse? Is that even a thing? I know that’s not how fediverse works so the answer is probably a hard No. Then where should we go? Discord have all this but that’s not my preference at all. I know Reddit has private subs but I don’t like reddit like many of you guys. What is the compromise here what do you suggest I should do?
I hear you you’re right a forum would be a good idea. I searched around and found humhub and Flarum both open-source forums you can self-host anywhere you want. Do you think these are good options for me? I have to say in first glance at-least Flarum sounds very basic and my community is going to be media post heavy I’m not sure if a forum is a good idea. A private micro blogging platform would be a much better fit for us but I don’t know if such thing even exists
