      Liquid democracy, Schulze method, Matrix servers, riseup, indymedia, open source trello could be places to reach out to / topics to read about. Also some open source video conferencing software would be nice which enables things like easy quotation, looking at how long people are speaking and such.

      Also PGP stuff and encryption of photos at protests would be neat, maybe a protest coordination tool, or one which works by chains of people verifying each other as real so that you can the referenced app https://hexbear.net/post/151651/comment/1837163

      Mini games about organizing or webgames that are anti work, the only way is to beat the boss Ender's game style

      Ouch that's tough.

      As the other person mentioned, self-hosted / federated, secure services for any infrastructure if you do look to found a chapter. Be paranoid about it. Question the security of Matrix. Hell, the best position might be zero tech/data in chud country, which would need to be embedded in the chapter's by-laws with some write-ups by yourself. The reason being that the data could become a kill list or similar. This applies to all data stacks for socialists, it's just riskier in your case.
