socialist group moved from slack to an open source replacement. many MANY reasons for this change were provided in an FAQ. none of my comrades read the FAQ and all started bike shedding the exact same questions.

12 hours after we switched, the new server fell over and no-one could get on so everyone went back to the slack to bitch

i get a little sad when the proletariat vigorously defend the very system that victimizes and holds them down, like turkeys endorsing thanksgiving. at least this time it's purely performative shaggaring.

webex update: running webex for the video and join.me for the audio, or maybe the other way around, I forget. yes, they are completely unsynced and seem to be drifting further apart the longer the meeting goes on.
