Preferred alternative?

Of the several other options I am in, I prefer Geneva Homes and Clubhouse Houses. Geneva has more formats/features built in, but CH is rolling out new features every week. Both have some version of token-gating as well.

Looks like they are web2, so what are the advantages over discourse, other than UI? They are still centrally controlled, could collect data, censor, shut down, not opensource etc? I am having trouble seeing why this would be better than discourse?

For me web3 is just shorthand for community controlled, open and transparent. I also much prefer desktop/web to mobile. I also DO NOT have ios. Having said that, how can I find this clubhouse houses that you speak about? All I see is a QR code on their web site? 

If Web3 matters to you most in a platform, you should follow @jm to learn more about the web3 rails they built Clubhouse houses on to reimagine the future of that app.

A home on Geneva is very similar to a server on Discord. The feature set to me is way above other platforms - forums, posts, chat, audio, video, broadcast style. They have most everything you need in one. Gating features, onboarding questions and surveys, the option to add discovery in feed. All with no code needed.

Not tried them yet but a better UX would be enough for me. (Gold tier is web3 too).
