Ask HN: Best platform to create a private community for 100-200 people?
I want to create a private community for 100 or so others. Right now we are using Telegram with 10 members, which is working great, but I can see you'll run into some limitations soon, especially around search.
Any suggestions you have, would be great. Thanks!
- cocoflunchy 10y agoHave you tried Slack or Discord? It really depends on the features you want to have and what you mean by "community"... Maybe take a look at Discourse too.
- webtechgal 10y ago'Best platform' is a very broad term. Best in what way? In terms of ease of creation/coding? In terms of features/stability/reliability/scalability? Or what? Be that as it may, if you're willing to explore the CMS route, I can vouch for WordPress with BuddyPress (and a handful of other) plug-ins. Proven, stable, feature-rich, quick to deploy etc. I'd say definitely worth checking out. https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress/ https://wordpress.org/plugins/buddypress/
- hitr 10y agoIf you are looking for hn or stackoverflow like community with moderation built in,take a look at discourse. I have used it and really like it.
