Has anyone successfully used #mastodon as like a neighborhood based NextDoor replacement?

Set up an instance that is open to residents of a certain neigborhood. The local timeline could actually be a LOCAL timeline!

I've avoided NextDoor like the plague but it seems to me all the features that help make Mastodon more pleasant than Twitter could easily apply on this platform as well.

I could even see *not* federating it effectively starting a neighborhood-specific social media site.

My first thought upon waking up in the morning is, “Uuuuggghh, not again.”

Waiting for someone to make an artisanal search engine that only indexes manually verified websites written by humans. Farm-to-table organic search results, handmade with 100% certified human creativity, like your grandparents told you about.

Buyer beware! Succulent plants are not, in fact, succulent. They taste like shit.

FYI--I will never 'understand the assignment.'

If you tried Mastodon before, and are back because Twitter is freaking out. Welcome back. Hopefully, you find a home this time around.

Sure, Twitter is down. But if you have Twitter Blue, you get to pay $10 a month for the pleasure of Twitter being down.
