People are running role-playing games on the tumblr communities and somehow it works really well. Communities are popping off.
I'm fascinated by the ways that social media "features" almost never get used as intended. Tumblr tried to have this thing called "tumblr live" a few years back and everyone hated it. Communities have been better received.
I wish we had something like "communities" here on mastodon. Imagine if monsterdon could be a little more ... contained.
Yes it's charming to have warning posts about the incoming onslaught of #monsterdon posts each Sunday. The monsterdon people are very considerate all things considered. But, it feels like swimming upstream. We need a groups feature.
I have thought about doing many fun things here, but rejected it because I don't want to spam people more than I already do. Groups ideally would have a customizable landing page, members list, the ability to view only posts from the group. Nothing huge.
@futurebird i totally missed yesterday’s cause i was offline doing social things in the flesh world.
Better than muting
