I haven't tried it but keep hearing of BeWelcome as a place aiming at "CS but without the crap" http://www.bewelcome.org http://www.bewelcome.org

  BeWelcome suffers from quite toxic and counterproductive internal politics and petty power struggles. And the fact that the few founders maintaining control refuse to invest anything of substance in the code just _barely_ holding the site together. Their constant boasts of "purely democratic!" and "proudly spending zilch on technical talent!" are in reality, massive liabilities and impediments. The site has barely seen any growth in about eight years, and without "enough" users, it provides little value to anyone except the small, core group. Which they're perfectly fine with. Several extremely talented coders who invested tons of time and skill into CS and BW over the years, finally started this last December: trustroots.org github.com/Trustroots/trustroots/ Who's into MEAN? Drop them a line!
