Hey everyone πŸ‘‹

I’ve started a community for FluxerWorld, a self-hosted Discord-style platform I’ve been working on and running publicly.

πŸ’‘ What is Fluxer?

Fluxer is an open-source messaging + VoIP platform focused on:

  • self-hosting
  • flexibility
  • independence

Basically a Discord-style system you can control yourself.

🌐 Public instance

https://fluxer.world/

You can join, chat, and test it right now.

I like Fluxer and am very hopeful for its future, but do we really need two communities for it? There is already !fluxer_app@lemmy.world

Fluxer app is for the entire app - this is for a specific instance of it.

Good question πŸ™‚

The existing community is for Fluxer as a whole (development, features, general discussion).

FluxerWorld is a specific public instance with its own setup, so this is just a place for updates and support related to that server.

Ah, my bad I must have misunderstood. Very cool, and I hope you get some traction!

Ah, I see. In that case, you might want to add a bit more info on that. For a specific instances, people often have questions such as:

  • Where is it hosted?
  • Who are the admin team?
  • What kinds content are allowed or prohibited?
  • What is the funding model?
