Föderation · Mi 05.07.2023 18:42:53 @feditips @fediverse Is there a Fedi version of something like Facebook Groups? Social circles for a specific topic? Calckey looks like it has something similar but they are currently not federated and also I've found the platform in general to be very unstable. |

Föderation · Mi 05.07.2023 19:16:16 Yes and no. The longest-established discussion systems are Guppe groups and Chirp groups, which are basically accounts you follow which repeat anything sent to the account. It's a very simple system but these can have quite good conversations on them. More info at https://fedi.tips/how-to-use-groups-on-the-fediverse/ Mastodon itself is working on Mastodon Groups, but this isn't ready yet. This seems it might be more like Facebook Groups? 1/2 |

Föderation · Mi 05.07.2023 19:19:20 Then there are Reddit-style discussion groups. The older system is Lemmy (but I don't recommend it https://mstdn.social/@feditips/106835057054633379). The newer system is Kbin (https://kbin.pub, https://kbin.social) which is less problematic, but it's still in its early stages and the interaction from Mastodon still seems a bit flaky. So, at the moment the Guppe and Chirp groups seem best, but there should soon be more choice. 2/2 |
