OSE's Social Media Accounts

Basics

• This page aims to organise all of OSE's "official" social media accounts
• As of now it is for assembling them, and "reviving" or creating the ones needed, but not yet created
• Some are sort of irrelevant to organisations and will rot be included
• Especially once we pass certain Tipping Points , moderation (for bots, spam, and trolls) and customer service/reply staff/bots will become VERY important, as of now the big thing is creating the pages, making the non technical ones (essentially everything but the wiki, the dev youtube channel, and dev accounts etc) look "nice/trendy", and doing some devious Marketing of these pages
• Also they should stay up to date
  • For most, especially at this phase, monthly, or so, updates/videos should be fine

Temp "trashcan"

• OBI Page
• Instagram
• Minds
• OSE Vimeo
• Diaspora
• OSE Github
• OSE Gitlab

Discord

• Used for bouncing ideas around in a fast, non-formal, yet orderly manner
• Permanent Link

Facebook

Anyone can post. To request posting rights, email your bio with relevant skill set to info at opensourceecology dot org

• Used for updates, but mainly long term announcements
• OSE Facebook

Facebook Groups

• OBI FB Group
• OSE Workshops FB Group

Mastadon

• Not too important
• This site needs love
• Great idea, little use as of now
• Open source (possibly integrasted security too)
• Also got to check that it isn't frequented by far-whatever groups due to people not being moderated as much, and the privacy (may not be the case, but this does happen, and using the same platform as neo-nazis etc isn't exactly good optics...)

Reddit

• Like discord in use, but VERY orderly
• May even make multiple subreddits (for ose, oci, or even go construction set level_
• Allows for in depth, orderly, complex discussions of ideas
• Also their algorhythm is probably one of the best in terms of alligning similar people (for better or for worse...)
• The OSE Page
• OSE Reddit

Twitter

• OSE Twitter
• Used for small updates
• Can also include links to more "in depth" sites/pages
• If we want to go all in, and risk potential messes, we can also use it for networking, direct contact, and "voicing our views" by saying "good job" etc to other groups
  • Risk of HUGE pr disasters, but we can do this low level (and as long as no one is stupid, we should be fine)

Website

• Our Website and Wiki

Youtube

• OSE Youtube
• Two channels? :
  • PR / "Main" channel (Information/Introductory Videos, Event Ads, Product Overviews, etc)
  • Dev/technical channel (Backups of Dev Meetings, Raw footage/near-unedited footage etc)
