Agreed. They do deserve their own points if they want to be that type of community. I’d say for instance if places like AskHistorians arise within lemmy or kbin, federating with just those would be interesting.

There are always going to be more exclusive communities. Humans just work like that. I say we ride with it for now.

Federation should be a gradient. If they want to close themselves off why is it using ActivityPub to begin with?

I ate soup with a fork once. Was it the smartest choice...absolutely not. Did it work... sort of.

its _ federation._ Some communities only want certain people. Once mod tools are better we will see changes. Let it grow.
