Super excited to share Berry House's newest project: https://calgarygroups.ca/ ✳️

It's a free, accessible wayfinder for community in Calgary, Alberta.

My co-founder Yvonne (https://www.linkedin.com/in/yvonne-berger/) spent hours researching and curating over +150 #grassroot #orgs, #clubs, and initiatives around #Calgary / #YYC

We built this because finding your people shouldn't be hard. Whether you're looking for a book club, a mutual aid network, an Indigenous-led organization, a tech meetup, or a place to volunteer. It's all here, organized and accessible.
What makes this different?

- Includes groups often invisible to mainstream directories
- Filters by identity (LGBTQ2S+, Indigenous, Disability, etc.) and interest
- Highlights grassroots and community-led initiatives alongside established nonprofits
- Free to use, free to list, built with accessibility in mind

Give it a look if you're interested!

Under the hood, I used 11ty + Tailwind CSS + Alpine.js to make an easily searchable static site, and I attached Decap CMS so Yvonne can edit and add entries effortlessly as well.

#postgres 18 will support #OAuth2—exciting! My use case: editing #geodata in #QGIS with #PostGIS. Most #orgs use single-sign-on #sso , but #PostGIS editing still requires separate passwords. OAuth2 could simplify this process

“Not this again...” Or maybe yes? #Linux is saving #orgs $$$ & it can scale.

This is a cool feature preview of #guilds and #orgs in #starcitizen presented at #citizencon .

Missions of guild-members give the org reputation and thus benefits to members.

More and more #companies ( #agencies, #orgs and others) deliver themselves to #Google #protection #scheme online, #giving-up their #clients’ (users, staff and others) #privacy to the #monopolist (as proved in court) company.

I’ll say no more. (Deduction is up to you.)

Major #trans #health #orgs slam the #CassReview for its "#selective & #inconsistent use of #evidence," claiming it #deprives #trans #youth of #essential #care

#Activists #criticize the #lack of robust #methodology & #oversight, causing #distress among #patients & #families post-#Tavistock closure.

Auf Facebook gibt es übrigens fast nur noch Dummdödel.
Also nur so zur Info, falls ihr es noch nicht gemerkt haben solltet. 🤷🏼‍♀️🤪

Vielleicht sollte ich hier mal wieder aktiver werden? 🤔

Are they really just independent teams or are they silos?

@blendernation @jeancf @BartV Thanks for doing this when it was not cool to do it;)

Now that the world has woken up to it's importance, I hope to see more #freesoftware #orgs and #foss projects focus on the #fediverse :)

@onlytina #Nachhaltigkeit, #Respekt vor der dig. #Privatsphäre, digitale #Tools, die demokratische #Grundwerte stärken.

Dazu zähle ich die Möglichkeiten im #Fediverse, #Pixelfed, #Mastodon, #Friendica usw. oder #Chatsysteme wie #XMPP oder #Matrix, ViCo-Systeme wie #BBB u #Jitsi

Allerdings nehme ich in diesem Bereich so gut wie keine #Initiativen, #Aktivisten oder #Orgs aus dem Bereich #Klimaschutz wahr. Lasse mich gern eines besseren belehren ;-)
