Karrot is a free and open-source tool for grassroots initiatives and groups of people that want to coordinate face-to-face activities on a local, autonomous and voluntary basis.

It is designed in ways to enable community-building and support a more transparent, democratic and participatory governance of your group.

So what is/ who is this? Who owns/ hosts karrot?

[–] poVoq 4 points 7 months ago (1 children)

There is a flagship instance that is run by the developers and also the option to self-host it. They have a page about that in their documentation: https://docs.karrot.world/self-host/why

Thank you so much. This is exactly what I was looking for and I couldn't find it any where obvious on the main page. It wasn't clear to me what or who karrot was, and how it was related to self hosting. They might consider adding an additional 'about' button some where very obvious for dumb dumbs like me who just miss it.
