We’re gathering around a fire 🔥

Around the Bonfire is our new newsletter: a digest of releases, community stories, collaborations, and everything else taking shape around Bonfire.

We’ll send it when there’s a new release, but never more than once a month. You can unsubscribe whenever you like.

The first edition is coming soon. Join us:

Here's another neat Bonfire feature: organisation profiles.

You can create a shared profile for your co-op, collective, project, or any other organisation or team, and invite trusted people to manage it with you.

Each team member signs in with their usual Bonfire account, with no insecure sharing of passwords, and together they can post as the organisation, access its feeds and private messages, manage its settings, and add or remove other members.

It’s similar to managing a Facebook Page, but built for the #fediverse: one shared public identity, securely managed by multiple people.

tried to write a reply and the minimise draft button makes the window go away (but where?)

hmm didn't recognize my short name. and I can't paste an image into the reply composer

Great to see so much development @ivan !

I have a qustion for a specific use case (could also ask this somewhere else, but why not here):

Say, I set up a rather local-focused bonfire instance, for example, inviting all people from my small village to have an account. I would like to be able to:
1) Post my opinion about, say, synthesizers to be read by people from all known instances. (and of course let all villager post about whatever they find interesting)
2) Allow villagers to post stuff about our village that is only visible for people in the village. For example, I could invite people for helping organizing a cleanup day in the village hall. If I understand correctly, this would be done by setting the boundary to local on my village instance.
3) On my instance, I would like to offer all accounts a default custom feed that only shows local stuff (as posted under point 2). Most villagers don't care about my opinion about synthesizers, they just wanna see what's going on in the village. (so, that is different from the current default "local" feed)

I would really love it when this third option would be possible. The literal example given here would be a serious use case, but I can think of many more.
