Comment on Introducing Habitat - A Social Platform for Local Communities
MoreZombies@quokk.au 1 week ago
Forgive me if any of these questions have obvious answers:
Would Habitat be suitable for hosting community events, or communities in general?
if you ran a hobby group, would your local Habitat be the place to share things? How much control is in the hands of the users vs the administrator?

Could you help me understand what you mean by “hosting community events”? Your users can create posts about events, but it has no tools for video calls or anything like that. Users can create posts in the categories created by the administrator. They can leave comments on those posts. There are a bunch of moderation tools and ability for the administrator to have settings for posts based on the category they’re in.

I’m guessing they mean like facebook events? A distinct section of the platform that allows for some kind of invite system, a feed for just the event, and reminders.

Ah I see. No, no specialised type of post for events, date based information, invite systems, or anything like that. I can see why that would be good though so I’ll give it some thought.

Look at gamedate.org, or for immediate context search it on YouTube, you may be able to implement a copycat tool with more general lists of common events than the games list the site uses.
