Federated Groups are quite challenging to get right.

I'm discussing our impl with @trwnh and there are several aspects and side effects that no other implementation has approached, including:

  • Private groups
  • Group roles
  • Group moderation
  • Group fallback delivery
  • Group migration
  • Group mod logs
  • Group admin vs Instance admin ownership

Everyone wants groups, which is understandable.

Nobody wants admins to be able to takeover groups, like Reddit did.

@pixelfed will get Groups right 😉

chriswood,

@dansup Thanks for all your hard work Dan. The Pixelfed app is coming along so nicely and I’m really grateful to have a safe space to share my photos and videos. You do great work 🙌

@dansup @trwnh Getting 's version of groups (boards) working right will be a laugh and a half. Will be watching closely to see how it goes for you!
