Self-hosted alternatives to Slido
Slido is a hosted audience interaction tool for meetings and events, with live polls, Q&A, quizzes and surveys that work beside presentation software. One listed app does its main job and runs in your own Cloudflare account.
Each answer comes from the app’s README and source code, compared with the features Slido describes on its own site.
