Well, one of the good thing out of the Snoo Platform (reddit) was the Global Reddit Meetup Day (GRMD), and local subreddit meetups.

Vulcan was participated in local GRMDs from 2017 to 2019.

Do you like community meetups with your subreddit community? Or even participated in a GRMD in the past? Share your story, Kbinauts!

    Correct me if I’m misunderstanding, as federation is a newish concept for me.

    As the instances of the verse are currently structured, geography-centric communities would be difficult to organize. (In my cursory searches, I’m having trouble locating stuff like lemmy.co.us.)

    But one thing that I sorely miss about the old days was that you could call in to a bbs, or visit a forum populated by “locals” and discuss all manner of topics.

    Would definitely be happy to learn how wrong I am!
