I find myself once again looking for a good solution to a common problem: as an open source project, hosting documentation/text-based resources as Markdown files in a git repository makes a lot of sense. Buuuut as a collaborative project that wants to invite explicitly less-technical people into the fold, using git and Markdown has a fairly high gatekeeping factor. How is this not a solved problem? :( #OpenSource #documentation

Those self-hosting Mattermost for open source community: how is that working out—especially cost-wise? Paying Mattermost directly seems to be cost-prohibitive for a large open source community ($10/user/seat??), but it’s not clear to me what the actual infra costs of self-hosting could be. But free solutions like Slack and Discord are no-goes due to certain policies and a lack of safety protections we need. Boosts welcome for exposure! 🙏 #SelfHosting #mattermost #OpenSource #community
