Due to the COVID-19 epidemic in March 2020, the government is mandated that schools in Indonesia implement School from Home (SFH) and use online instruction. A community-based learning platform called Zedemy was created during the COVID-19 pandemic to connect social media with online learning environments. The use of Zedemy has yet to be prevalent among teachers and students in Indonesia, as shown by the number of participants, 329 for all courses at Zedemy in 2021. This study used the UTAUT approach to assess user interest and acceptability based on users' voluntariness in utilizing Zedemy as an online learning tool during the COVID-19 epidemic. Surveys were sent to Zedemy users who have used at least one other online learning platform. The data will next be examined using the SmartPLS 3 tool and the SEM method. The findings showed that variables such as performance expectancy, effort expectation, social influence were affecting the behavioral intention of the user, meanwhile facilitating conditions was affecting the use behavior of the user. This research also found that moderating variables may have an impact on the model. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
