It’s funny, I started up a private Minecraft server again recently, for just some close friends and anyone else I invite, after not running one for several years. The last time I ran one was the public 5by5 server in 2013-2014. Having collaborative building projects on this server that I work on with my old friends and some new ones has been giving me the same feelings as the projects I used to do on the internet.

I read Darius's post, and I realized that it was like "What if you wanted a little corner of the internet for all of your friends?"
In my case it's sadly more like "both of your friends".
But here's to cordiality and civility and maybe a little goofiness in cyberspace on tilde together. And maybe some new friendships?

Have people read Darius’s thing about this?
Yes! It's a hugely inspiring read. It almost made me spin up my own Mastodon instance but... ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Darius' Mastodon posts about making his own fork of the code and running it are inspiring. I take it you're following those, too?
Tilde IRC could fit the bill for us…
This seems to be a popular choice. Not another Slack, please. An RSS aggregator of tilde activity (mentioned elsewhere, I believe) would/will also help a community feel.
Email lists are nice, though, because they move a little slower. I appreciate that when life/work/projects intrude.
