    Why is it on Google Forms? There are many self-hosted form-building services. Isn’t this the whole point of Lemmy? To avoid centralized services like Google Forms?

      We discussed it briefly (some of which should be in the linked post). This seemed like the simple and familiar solution for our first run, where we had an option for people to reach out and submit manually if they didn’t feel good about using the form. Once we have a chance to compare and vet the options, we can move to something better for next time.

      On that note, would you have a recommendation?

        We can drop off the surveys at Bob’s house, you know the one who lives just off of Main?
