       Show HN: FreeBoardGames.org - FOSS platform for publishing
       boardgame.io games
        
       Hello HN,  I have started FBG some years ago when I moved to the
       Bay Area and could not find a simple, cross-platform, no-
       registration way to play board games with my friends back in my
       home country. I also wanted to make it simple to create multiplayer
       board games online for developers in their free time.  Shortly
       after, I found out about boardgame.io with similar goals and
       decided to join forces with them. It became the engine of our board
       games, and we focused on publishing/serving them. To be fair with
       everyone and inspired by Wikipedia, we made the project a non-
       profit with GPLv3 Affero license.  Since then, the project has
       gotten many amazing contributors that developed really cool board
       games, added translations, helped with infra, etc (see
       https://www.freeboardgames.org/en/about ...). My focus has been on
       the infrastructure (scaling, adding text chat, etc).  During the
       pandemic, we saw a large 30x increase in usage, and it also became
       more useful for me, as I started using it at work for (now virtual)
       fun team meeting events.  Please check it out and give any
       feedback!
