[tw5] Re: We need more discourse about Discourse ... and not just the positives ...

So it turns out you don't need Enterprise to have 1000 members. You can get premium, and then pay the 4c per user additional fee. So that makes the yearly cost $440. Not that I'm promoting it, necessarily. My main point is that most of the prior conversations assumed zero cost forum solutions.

Re: [tw5] Re: I Think I Hacked TiddlyWiki

Super-interesting stuff! Thanks for the background. There's a bit of consolation in there, though: It sounds like the RAA attack relies on getting the user to execute JS in the WSH rather than within the browser. TiddlyWiki on Node or running through Bob.exe or in TiddlyDesktop *might* be a

Re: [tw5] Re: I Think I Hacked TiddlyWiki

@Scott, With a bit of creativity, practically anything is possible! You’re right in that the JS could not have DIRECT access to the user’s file system, but as explained in https://nakedsecurity.sophos.com/2016/06/20/ransomware-thats-100-pure-javascript-no-download-required/, one could simply use

No, it's not a pure email. It has a web forum with all the services you expect -- file attachments, photos, wikis, calendars. But you're right about the price. It obviously wasn't like that when I signed up. At the time there was no user-count limit for the basic group. Hopefully they won't

Is there a good central thread for discussing the move to Discourse that I've missed out on? I did a quick search, and it seems to come up in different threads, but I didn't see a pinned topic or thread that serves as a hub for the conversation. Mark S. asked a couple of good questions: >

[tw5] Re: We need more discourse about Discourse ... and not just the positives ...

Why are you assuming that GG won't be here in 2 or 3 years? Are you willing to pay $5 per month just to have a different forum, that may not actually be significantly better than what we have now? I have a forum with groups.io. After the initial transfer fee it has been free. It includes mail

[tw5] Re: A brewing idea: TiddlyWiki on node.js: check for changes

Based on a cursory review of scenario, I think it can be generalized to Real Estate applications. This opinion is based on my discovery that Agents frequently share their listings with other Agents ( even ones from competing Brokerages ). It could be even more general if a Seller and several

[tw5] Re: We need more discourse about Discourse ... and not just the positives ...

Mark, we do not know if GG exist i 2 or 3 years - we do not even know how many would be left to return to GG or go to somewhere else. If the move is a success - and everybody or most people move and like it. Success. If a lot of people are lost in the moving and too many gradually leave - not

[tw5] Re: A brewing idea: TiddlyWiki on node.js: check for changes

Brewed idea has fermented into a different prototyping project. *Scenario*: Say I have two sales reps, each with his/her own TiddlyWiki running on node.js They each maintain their own customer lists, but I want each sales rep to have view-only privs on the other sales rep's customer list. So

Mark, I do hope the search will be better -- it's hard to tell right now because there's not much on there. I hate to say "it would be hard to make it worse than GG search..." ;) Paying for Discourse feels less sustainable somehow, but I think there's a core of contributors who are making a

[tw5] Re: We need more discourse about Discourse ... and not just the positives ...

So mostly it's the meta issues that concern me. First, someone is paying for Discourse, right? It's not free like GG. Is that sustainable, or will we back at GG in 2 or 3 years? Second, is the search better on Discourse? Because that was the main concern about GG -- things become lost in the

[tw5] Re: We need more discourse about Discourse ... and not just the positives ...

Josiah, when you say newbies, do you mean TiddlyWiki newbies, or Discourse newbies? If TiddlyWiki, then perhaps there are ways we can organise categories or something to make it easier to know where to post the occasional question? If Discourse, I'm not sure...having experience reading and

Folks, Personally I have used many kinds of forums and conversational systems and the good ones have a number of features that you find are needed and help both with communications and adoption. Discourse has many if not all these features, and sure they may be implemented differently in

I signed up a few days ago and have looked around to get to know it - and hopefully find something I liked about it. In between looking around and reading- I started up a few "comfort" tiddlywikis. It looks rather complicated to me. Time will hopefully help. A lot of users over quite some time
