I’m looking for an FOSS alternative to google forms that doesn’t require people to sign in. If anybody has a suggestion that would be much appreciated
Anafabula ( @Anafabula@discuss.tchncs.de ) English30•3 months ago Lime Buzz (fae/she) ( @SweetCitrusBuzz@beehaw.org ) English4•3 months agoStrongly agree with using cryptpad as a replacement for google docs in general, it’s very good and we use it a lot for all sorts of things.
Only downside is it can take a while to open despending on power of device and connection speed.
ReversalHatchery ( @ReversalHatchery@beehaw.org ) English3•3 months agoIt’s useful but opening such a form takes nearly as much time as filling it out
fuzzzerd ( @fuzzzerd@programming.dev ) English1•3 months agoLooks like the link was to the form builder, not the data intake side of a built form. I didn’t make one to verify that side is different though.
I’ll check it out. Thank you
I’ll take a look, thanks.

tardigrada ( @tardigrada@beehaw.org ) 7•3 months agoLimesurvey appears to be good (among other sites, Switching Software is good to find alternatives).

SecurityPro ( @SecurityPro@lemmy.ml ) 4•3 months agoOne of the most useful features of Google Forms is automatically transferring the form input to a spreadsheet. Any of FOSS alternatives have that ability?

Tyde ( @Tyde@discuss.tchncs.de ) 3•3 months agoBaserow or nocodb come to my mind. They are actually airtable alternatives but also include a forms feature
Andromxda 🇺🇦🇵🇸🇹🇼 ( @Andromxda@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) English1•3 months agoI like HeyForm. Here’s the source code, as well as instructions for self-hosting. It looks very clean and modern, and has a similar UX to Typeform.
The second best option would be Nextcloud Forms (source code).
