Flarum Community In India

jaikrishna-tavva9

Hari Telugu? City name?

Yes, hyderabad, but I want the forum to be English mainly, and options for regional languages like Hindi etc. I can manage the server, but not long, but I expect there shouldn't be any changes anytime soon or at least in the coming months. I would like people like @Hari to engage the community, and not get sick of server management 🤣😂🤪.

Hari free flarum using an India based droplet

that seems to require a lot of server management knowledge and backed level coding skills.

Hari I don't know how to run websites on plain ubuntu it involves a lot of commands and a huge learning process

I was thinking of a LAMP stack on AWS Linux for the community. And panels like CyberPanel are also an alternative to Plesk which are costly

Please be aware that Flarum is protected by the Flarum Foundation. If you want to create a regional forum for Flarum users in India you will need to get in touch with the Foundation first. You can read more about this topic on the Flarum website: https://flarum.org/verified-communities

Hari true.

i feel like starting a different community for each language is not so worthy.. what if discuss.flarum.org allows us to start discussions in a different language and hide those conversations from the latest feed on the community, so managers can follow that tag and address user queries?

I am not interested to join/moderate any regional flarum communities. i wish you all the best bro 🙂

I never said that. I told like multi language forum.

Hari

jaikrishna-tavva9 i am speaking from a broad perspective, Europe got 20+ languages and India got 21. flarum gonna end up managing 50+ communities? ☺

GreXXL i was thinking to tag you 😃 where is that discussion which explains the process of joining? i forgot the title of that discussion

Jishnu

jaikrishna-tavva9 Hi , I'm jishnu From kerala . I don't think that's an good idea . India have more than 20+ languages, so managing such a community will be a headache . I think there is no need of another forum , because all indians know to read and write English then what's the purpose of another one .!

Hari where is that discussion which explains the process of joining? i forgot the title of that discussion

We don't have a VC coordinator at the moment, so please use the contact page Verified Community option for now: https://flarum.org/foundation/contact

Hari

luceos we should include contact URL here too

Hari huge learning process

Well, its untrue.......

Of course, thwere are commmands that you have to learn, but running website on Ubuntu from CLI is not that hard........

Jishnu The purpose of verified communities is to help people in their own languages, while the majority of a country might know how to read and write English, doesn't mean that their good at it, and it doesn't mean that everyone does. A verified community in their own language is far more inclusive.

Jishnu

tankerkiller125 sorry for the confusion caused . I meant that , it's very difficult to manage a regional community for India in this time . Because while India has 22 separate official languages , it is home to a total of 121 languages and 270 mother tongues.

It's a good thing if we have a regional community , but it tooks a lot of manpower

jaikrishna-tavva9

All of you got it wrong I guess? A community in India doesn't specifically need to be able to manage 1500 languages. At least that's what google translate's there for.

If at all, you guys do set up an Indian flarum forum, I would be happy to bear expenses for the first month or two.
