@Genie@spinster.xyz @alex @freemo @Surasanji That's called an echo chamber. It is kind of the opposite of federation in that you would never hear or see any opinion but your own. I assume there is a place for such things, I just don't personally see the value in it myself as I am for the free and open exchange of ideas. However, if you are looking to build something like that, all that is required is to de-federate all the instances that aren't 100% in agreement with whatever your instance(in general) stance happens to be. There are closed instances that just contain one business or family or whatever and can certainly create that "support group" environment. I don't believe that was the goal of Spinster, though I don't pretend to speak for them.

I would rather see a playground where both the boys and girls could play together and no one has to stay on the pink side or the blue side and play with gender appropriate toys.
