thinking about it, microblogging on fedi is not that much unlike USENET of ‘ye olden days.

of course, the feature set evolved quite drastically, and we don’t really post to software-enforced groups (rather, groups are more generic and enforced socially). but if you squint hard enough, it’s similar! i think that’s neat

@domi
IME on fedi it's quite difficult to post to one group I'm a member of without posting to the other.

Also, if groups are enforced socially, wouldn't that mean people with low social skill will struggle to navigate them?

@wolf480pl Ad 1 - I think that’s a drawback, not a benefit

Ad 2 - it’s like real life, really

@domi
ad 2, I think there's a reason me and many others escaped from real life interactions into the internet as soon as we could

@domi
ad 1 I don't get which way you think is a drawback
