wa-automate-nodejs VS jam

Love your hybrid model via gumroad! I do something similar for my own open-source project

https://github.com/open-wa/wa-automate-nodejs

There should be some sort of support group for those of us trying to monetize (sans donations) our open source projects!

if you can program in Node.js, or have an basic knowledge of javascript or are motivated to learn Node.js, then I would recommend looking at https://github.com/open-wa/wa-automate-nodejs

You can use a platform like otechie. There people are required to put in their card details before starting a conversation. This is what I do with open-wa (https://github.com/open-wa/wa-automate-nodejs#support)

Because I sell license keys to unlock features, it allows me to provide generalized support and quick bug fixes via the discord. If people need help with integration in their specific code base then that's when I ask them to go through the "consulting route" - if it's quick they use otechie. If it's more involved (1+ days) then we work out a contract arrangement.

I hardly get any clients through these means but it does put a clear value on my time which results in the community appreciating the time and effort into the project and the real time support (via discord).

Not exactly the same, but if you want a audio-only Clubhouse clone, check Jam https://gitlab.com/jam-systems/jam

The main repo is over at Gitlab: https://gitlab.com/jam-systems/jam/ which also has the issue tracker (we could do a better job keeping that up to date though tbh).

most Docker-compose.yml files I come across, e.g. https://gitlab.com/jam-systems/jam/-/blob/master/deployment/docker-compose.yml or https://github.com/Chocobozzz/PeerTube/blob/develop/support/docker/production/docker-compose.yml propose the complete setup while some propose those and a slimmer version without a web servers or reverse proxy https://github.com/nextcloud/docker#base-version---fpm

I think the drop-in audio room is here to stay. It is a format.

hn is a text room. Similar to how Twitter is a text room. Similar yet different.

I'm working on Jam which is an open source implementation of the drop-in audio room format, in many ways similar to Clubhouse or Twitter Spaces but also different (and more versatile).

I found Benedict Evens' take on Slack adding audio rooms and what it means for Clubhouse:

https://twitter.com/benedictevans/status/1377363658167050241...

Some things are so fundamental that it is difficult to say whether they were "invented" or "original". In some cases _discovered_ seems more fitting.

Why would you want yo use Clubhouse? You could use free, Open Source and privacy-respecting alterntives such as Jam (the closest to Clubhouse, can be self-hosted), Jitsi or Mumble...

For Jam (open source Clubhouse) we do a weekly “Jam Jam” which basically is an audio space that people can join (no video, no calendar slot negotiation, connecting with others who use the project).

We link to it in our readme

https://gitlab.com/jam-systems/jam

(can be improved)

I wonder if there is a better name for the concept that works for international audiences and people who don’t know the concept from academia.

For larger projects I can also imagine other formats like “show and tell” or “Q & A” where people submit questions (maybe even with donations or paid to create an income stream for the people working on the project)

Nice to see alternative clients already. Might also be cool to combine with Jam.
