Hey y’all, was considering giving Zulip a try. I’ve got a group of friends that do everything from play games together, share memes, and organize medium-ish sized events that require a fair amount of coordination.

I was considering doing a self-host and was curious if doing this through a VPS service would work?

I was also maybe wanting to host somewhere I could also do a CMS and maybe a foundary instance.

As far as the CMS goes it would be a simple blog for sharing music and things.

Foundary is a VTT similar to roll20.

Thanks in advance!

    Zulip pretty easy to self host. I ran a server for a group of friends a little while back, and it worked great. The UI takes a bit of getting used to, but it is great once you do because everything is a thread by default. And that makes it really easy to catch up on things.

    took one look, said needs an external video/voice provider (e.g. zoom, jitsi,…), said bye.

      yeah, this is my hesitancy for using it for gaming. Most of the other stuff it may work.

      I’m taking a new look at stoat and maybe donating to them as well.

      I thought I read they plan to do E2EE but it doesn’t yet.
