We want to meet folks where they are at, and are open to suggestions.

#ATprotocol users can use PDS storage for public events or our storage for private events. Other forms of login keep the data internally.

Groups aren't hooked into ATproto yet, just the event posting. RSVPs are 50% complete.

Thanks for the input. How important is this for you? Is it a common use case?

If you don't provide an email at login, then we'd prompt for one. I just need to go figure out how to do opt-in or out for oauth scopes.

Might take me a couple of weeks to get to it unless you tell me it's urgent.

I recently moved away from having folks enter an email address and started pulling email to save a step on entry.

Would having a primary/secondary email fulfill your needs, or is it important to not use your bsky email?

What a fun idea. I saw it pop up in my feed at platform.openmeet.net/events/count....

I noticed KY was the address, and I'm from here and love the back roads. Keep us posted on the next one.

Thanks. I've had my head in the weeds for a bit and hadn't seen that.

Whee! NPM, too. I wonder if they are related

Try it out, and do you want to see more info when initially landing on the group, but not logged in? I've got other users that want that information hidden from the world. I'd like to find a way to work for both cases. What would you like to share about your private group with the world?

I got time and just pushed an update that makes this workflow a little more smooth.
Should be more obvious there is a group but you can't see it until after login/registration. After logging in, then we take you back to the same page, where you can now see basic info.

Congrats on the growth of your community!

I'm building a meetup replacement since their fees can be too high for many groups. Would an opensource platform with lower or no fees be an option for your group? Are there meetup specific features you can't live without?
