    From a friends and familiy birthday party to a march for climate change, today, our gatherings are trapped in the tech giants' platforms. How to get organized, how to click on “I join” without providing intimate data on Facebook or locking yourself in MeetUp?

    Free, open source and not owned by Facebook. I've tried Stuff and Guestboard which are pretty great, but Mobilizon is even better in terms of functionalities and privacy.
