- The two top choices were: Slack Group with 37.6 % of the votes, and Closed Facebook Group with 25%.
- The Survey also confirmed, what we were suspecting: Meetup.com is not the medium of choice for most people. It only collected 20% of the votes.
WordPress SWFL is now on Slack
Ani Carlson created a Slack workspace for our WordPress SWFL meetup and you are all invited to join us there. We would adopt the WordPress Forums guidelines also for our Slack space. TL:DR: Be helpful, be kind, don’t spam, no self-promotion, and don’t be a jerk.
Beyond that, we can adjust as we go along using this Slack channels.
Our Meetup group of co-organizers are also the administrators of the Slack group.
