[liberationtech] Time to Switch to Discord & Mozilla Firefox?

[Joseph Pollack]

dear colleagues,

Just as a side note

   - rocket.chat 's privacy features are simply encrypted rooms that are 0
   wiped on close and
   - x wiki has some kinda of spin off originally called cryptpad, now
   something else that lets you do collaborative documents all encrypted
   - both are open source... let me know i know both chairmen so I can
   perhaps assure privileged access

Other than that lmk how i can help as i can easily provide a "third party"
service to this group for a given amount of time if you want to pilot
something.
