And if any #SocialCoop members want to use that group to organise meet-ups in your area, DM me your email address and I'll add you.

I created a #GetTogether group for #SocialCoop meet-ups: https://gettogether.community/socialcoop/

And here's a proposed #meetup for members (or any other interested folks) who'll be in #London for #Open2018:
https://gettogether.community/events/92/post-open2018-socialcoop-meet-up/

Please let me know if that works, or any counter-proposals @ntnsndr @matslats @richdecibels @Wtebbens @oli @Stacco @neil (please tag anyone I may have missed!)

@gemlog @jjg nice, I've been looking for a good feed reader, will give this one a go

@cryptpad @ldubost thanks! :)

@ldubost @cryptpad

I like your model by the way. In case you don't know, a similar revenue sharing model has been working well for Moodle (the libre education software) for many years: https://moodle.com/about-partners/

@cryptpad @ldubost

Different question, regarding premium subscriptions and instances: can an instance have different pricing or different storage limits than cryptpad.fr? and is there a way for an instance admin to give free accounts with custom storage limits to friends?

@cryptpad @ldubost

Yes, but you can start by implementing the standard (to the letter, as much as possible), and then test with other implementations if/when you need to.

I know what you mean re. Etherpad, but what if someone adds encryption capability to it? The point being, using standards doesn't make interoperability easy, but it makes it possible. If you have a choice between a federation standard and hacking together something that only works for your app, the choice seems obvious, no?

@cryptpad @ldubost

Using ActivityPub doesn't necessarily mean interacting with the rest of the fediverse (though it would open the door to interesting use cases we might not be able to predict), but if you begin by using it to federate Cryptpad instance with each other, then maybe Cryptpad instance with OnlyOffice instances, and then maybe Cryptpad with Etherpad, etc....

@cryptpad are you planning on using ActivityPub for federating?

I've been using the #CryptPad collaborative online #editor with end-to-end encryption (and getting a lot of friends to use it) so much that I'm considering setting up an instance on a server.

@cryptpad is now fundraising for some awesome milestones:

- Spreadsheets and Office-like docs by integrating http://onlyoffice.com
- Commenting
- Shared Drives
- #Federation for pads with cross-instance commenting and messaging!
- Offline editing
- Suggested edits

@h Looks like I'm out of the loop - who/what are you talking about?

Every day is #caturday in this house :-)

@iona I was quoting Giffgaff. I like to use them when in the UK, and was hoping I could just use that EU-wide. Their definition is more than 60 days in a 4 month period.

As a #nomad, I was glad when the EU "put an end to #roaming charges", so I could reduce the number of SIM cards I was constantly having to swap.

Things didn't quite turn out that way of course. One of my providers simply turned off EU roaming entirely. The other added "fair use" terms that disallow "using our services within the EU for prolonged periods which don’t follow reasonable consumer holiday and travel patterns and behaviour".

Damn you, consumer (but you must fit the pattern) society!
