How do you like it? I was hoping a community as sufficiently nerdy as the ttrpg community would have made an open source alternative by now but it looks like selfhosting proprietary software with a modding platform is as close as we can get.

    I ran a campaign of the Unofficial Elder Scrolls RPG that someone had developed a working module for on it. I liked Foundry, the ability to get plugins easy was pretty helpful and cool. Things like staircase teleporters, pins that can take a player to different scenes, and an almighty calendar. When I tried a in-person Foundry-assisted little campaign this year, I think it worked out well having my tower on a big screen as a player, my cheapo laptop as the GM, and any other devices my players brought.

    Unfortunately, self-hosting is too much trouble for myself so I had to go through a service (The Forge) to host. At that point I had to pay for a service anyways, but it was the only way to get a working UESRPG game going.
