A friendly reminder for all who are looking for an alternative to gup.pe because it has apparently been taken over by new and/or unknown entities.
tootgroup.py offers group functionality for Mastodon, Pleroma, GotoSocial and probably others (albeit untested). All you need is an account that acts as your group and some computer running Python that regularily connects to it.
Its written by me, easy, lightweight and most importantly, not dependant on a third party service.
Howto and Download from its Github Page: https://github.com/oe4dns/tootgroup.py

A.gup.pe going down has left the Fediverse in a tenuous situation for groups. I've collated my thoughts and concerns about the options we have available in The state of Groups on the Fediverse.
This post talks about specific concerns for adult creators and those who enjoy our work. It also talks about specific technical issues and limitations.

Evan Prodromou raises some very important points about what is missing currently in the Fediverse.
A lot of my friends can't leave Facebook because of groups. They have private groups for friends that are invisible to non-members, or semi public groups that non-members can see but not post in. And groups allow for self moderations. Those are all important features that the Fediverse is missing.

We've just published a new blog post about access control in decentralised systems!
https://p2panda.org/2025/07/28/access-control.html
The post includes details about the design and implementation of our new p2panda-auth crate, along with a discussion of some of the technical challenges that arise when trying to solve access control in a decentralised context.

DO YOU KNOW ABOUT GUPPE GROUPS? 🐠
So, if you have a particular interest or hobby, you can follow @[keyword-here]@a.gup.pe to see relevant posts in your Home Timeline.
When you @ mention the group in your post, your post will be shared with everyone in that group.
It's not too different to following a hashtag, but could potentially have a wider reach.
Find out more and see some popular groups here: https://a.gup.pe
Here comes a longer blog post where we share our insights, learnings, research and design of p2panda's group- and message encryption for p2p applications!
