Gurlic – Free and Open Communities

In plain words

Gurlic is a free and open-source platform for building and managing communities. Launched in 2020, it provides tools for groups to organize, communicate, and collaborate online. The platform is designed for anyone looking to create a dedicated space for their community without relying on corporate social media. Being open-source, Gurlic allows users and developers to inspect, modify, and self-host the software according to their needs.
