Online tools for organizing locally? (hexbear.net)

I'm passing this question along, because I think we might have folks here who have some suggestions.

What tools or combination of tools are folks using to organize in your local area and beyond?

A relative of mine was asking me about software to replace the event/RSVP/page aspects of Facebook.

It almost sounds like he wants a locked down Lemmy instance or a combination of tools, but I'm not sure what the landscape is like out there.

Any input would be cool. I might link him to this post later if I get enough comments.

whatever you use; be sure not to put any identifiable personal information in it and insist on using mullvad or firefox vpn only (other vpns won't help).

they already have that information, but why make their jobs easier on them. lol

ProtonVPN isn't okay?

security researchers have found exploitable weaknesses in all vpns except for mullvad and firefox.

Mullvad stay winning!

For now and the other ones will get fixed eventually.

I use AirVPN for port forwarding torrents, and I heard IVPN was good. Are those included?

Edit: From what I read online, IVPN was among the VPNs tested, and it is also on par with Mullvad and Mozilla.

they'll all be patched soon; that's the reason why we have security researches.
