I live in a 800+ unit, corporate owned and managed apartment complex and would like to organize the renters. What kind of platform would you purpose? As most folks aren't as nerdy, I suppose discord would work too well, I was thinking a simple bulletin board solution on the web for example, the post a poster with QR code around the property... What are your thoughts?

Listen to Parts 1 and 2 of this podcast:

https://www.iheart.com/podcast/105-it-could-happen-here-30717896/episode/resisting-mass-eviction-in-santa-barbara-116555025/

That should at least give you some starting point for organizing and I believe there’s a larger tenant’s union organization that might be able to help you.

Thanks! I'll check it out

Just a thought: depending on your community, may also want to ensure it's available in 2 or more languages to maximize engagement.

I used to live in many apartment complexes (small to large). The range and diversity of residences largely varied. Used to live in a community with a large hispanic population and Spanish as the primary language. In another one, I believe it was Vietnamese. But for the most part English was understood, but not the primary.

[–] ChrisMcMillan 1 points 1 year ago

Definitely Spanish also!

I really like Slack but I doubt the majority of renters in this community know it or would be able to install it

It's really low entry, they make it easy.

I set up a space and generated a QR code. That really was easy! Now I'll go canvassing😁👋

That would be evil...

I think a web bulletin board is a great idea with maybe a form that other renters can use to submit thoughts or things they want addressed

[–] ChrisMcMillan 1 points 1 year ago

What're decent solutions for an easily managed bulletin board that offers browser frontend for computer, cellphone and tablet?
