Groups is what is missing from Mastodon. Real Groups that is. Where posts inside a group stay inside a group. You join or leave the group if you are not interested in that topic. Same as Matrix Rooms or Telgram groups. Currently Mastodon is just a stream of announcements and no real social connection. Individual threads are OK. But you'll never find that thread again after a few days.

Groups mean people can post in detail on that topic without woryying it'll bore their followers. People have multiple different topics that need not overlap.

Groups make a social connection. You'll get to know people.

@gilles @ivan oh that's an interesting idea! yeah the current local feed is simply activities from local users, but being able to filter using the boundary could be useful indeed!
