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

Cryptpad has Forms. You can choose if users need to sign in. Looks like you don't even need an account to create one on their official instance. It's self-hostable too.

Strongly 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.

It's useful but opening such a form takes nearly as much time as filling it out

Looks 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

In case, you're looking to do polls or schedule an event, then FramaDate is also pretty good. You can find a hosted instance at https://nuudel.digitalcourage.de/ .

Limesurvey appears to be good (among other sites, Switching Software is good to find alternatives).

I use framaforms

mhm, nextcloud forms?

[-] Tyde@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 1 week ago

Baserow or nocodb come to my mind. They are actually airtable alternatives but also include a forms feature

[-] SecurityPro@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 week ago

One of the most useful features of Google Forms is automatically transferring the form input to a spreadsheet. Any of FOSS alternatives have that ability?

technically something like symfony is much more flexible though you obviously have to do more programming
