or maybe more general #Fediverse crowd: Given some communication over here recently, I wonder whether it's possible to compose posts that are visible to followers only but for which _each_ of my follower is able to see each response and able to interact with each other person responding there no matter whether these people follow each other too?

@z428 this feature is called "a forum" or the upcoming "groups"
- @hoergen Forum / group seems similar but unrelated; in this case, don't I need everyone I would like to address to be in that group / on that forum then?
  
  @z428 yes everybody has to be in that forum or group. That what you are trying is something like a "private public post Chimera".
  
  You can do that if you have every other node in the fediverse under your personal control. Since this might a little bit difficult and guides to some serious discussion potential besides the node owners (and users) you should maybe rethink the reasons why you want to do that.
  
  The more polite way of "grouping" people is to ask/invite them to join a group/forum by their own free will. There might be a chance that some of the people are not happy to be put in a half-public "Opt Out" selection by some strangers. :smiley187:
  
  @z428 Yes you would need all your followers to be in that group and @hoergen is correct about the feature that allows this.
