@LeoSammallahti At least in the USA, options are dependent upon funding, not size. Public school funding comes from both public and private sources. Thus public schools with wealthier student pools have more options than schools with poor student pools.

The biggest driver of large school size is typically sports. A bigger talent pool wins state championships.

Once one has a data model, Twitter can be turned into an echo chamber via blocks and mutes.
Echo chambers can be invaded; even they require safeguards. Even without invasion, they can become twitter-like with too broad a subject matter.

Rocket.Chat (self-hosted) has become indispensable for both the distributed organisations I work in over the past few years.
I can't understand why any organisation would commit their collaboration to overseas platforms like Slack, Discord, and MSFT Teams where you have to pay to access your own data... sort of like a ransom... Yup. Ransomware.
