• Creating Your Own "Textbook?"

  And see if your institution has a license for Pressbooks, which allows you to create your own multimedia book. Source: 12 months ago

• Map art book publication

  I self published a history book with extensive maps. I prepared the manuscript online with Pressbooks https://pressbooks.com/, and published with Amazon's Kindle Direct Publishing https://kdp.amazon.com/en_US/. Very satisfied with both. The book grew out of my website http://ravensworthstory.org/. I briefly describe the process of preparing maps for the book here... Source: over 2 years ago

• Self hosted online digital publishing options?

  So, I am aware of Pressbooks, which uses Wordpress. Also, Booktype, which looks like a fairly complicated system to set up. Finally, I can think of Open Monograph Press, which takes the complication process even further. Source: almost 3 years ago

  Perhaps. I am looking at https://saidit.net/, Quora, and other platforms as well. Source: 12 months ago

• Rabbit Hole is a simple PhpBB forum where users can request their own subforum.

  I love IRC but it serves a slightly different purpose. It isn't threaded and it sacrifices permanency for instantaneousness. In my opinion, a forums and chat rooms compliment each other. Saidit is one good Reddit alternative that implements IRC. It's based on Reddit's code but with some modifications. Every page has an embedded IRC box specific to that subcommunity.

• Daily General Discussion - June 16, 2023

  For Reddit alternatives, it looks like https://saidit.net/ (https://github.com/libertysoft3/saidit) and https://phuks.co/ (https://github.com/Phuks-co/throat) could be viable alternatives. They're open source, have the UX features we desire (threaded, voting, sorting, collapsing). Source: 12 months ago

• Updates and next steps after reddit admins issued a threat last night to moderators who continue to protest site leadership

  Someone already did it - it's called saidit and it works well but very few people have gone there so far. Source: 12 months ago
