Groups seems a great and much needed function! Congratulations... 😊
Is it possible to create a group that is open inside the instance, but unknowable outside it?
Thanks a lot...

@ivan @mayel
This possiblity of a "visible only inside the instance" group may be quite useful for community work and coordination.
It will also put Bonfire in league with any channel based chat (CBC) but with a richer and more powerful feature set. 😉
Do you believe it may be a desirable use case? I can think of a few classic examples in our own case (an intentional semi rural community) and many others... 😁
