Let's Play a Game! A place to discuss all things board game, regardless of genre. Everything from Scrabble and Catan to Ark Nova, 1830 and beyond is fair game! That means we have blackjack. Bring your own hookers, sorry.

Rules:

  1. Play nicely with others here.
  2. Discussion should be at least somewhat related to board games and all that entails.
  3. Self-promotion is allowed within reason. Don't go overboard!

I'm looking for a software to plan sessions (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I'm a regular at a local BG hub and until now people keep planning sessions via a whatsapp group. This creates a few problems, such as people asking for players for a game, and then random messages pushing their message out of screen, so people don't notice. Basically there's a lot of people who have games who want to play specific games and people who want to play those games, and I want to find a more efficient way to organize this.

Is there any software that does this? Preferrably open source and self-hostable. I thought I'd try asking first before I bite the bullet and write it myself.

Is a selfhost non-federated forum software not going to fly?

Misago is pretty good, if you are using proxmox there's a script for deploying.

If you are looking for a shared calendar maybe a full groupware suite like Tracim? Turn off different bits for different classes of user?
