I want to set up a collaborative writing/socializing platform for my friend group using something like Calckey/Misskey, and just want to know if this is possible.

The non Fediverse options all look very lacking, and are meant for corporate/business environments anyway. It really feels like there's not many good and modern options for this sort of thing, but maybe there's better alternatives. Who knows, I'm really new to this scene.

I honestly forgot about this, there's also that Blue Sky thing I heard people talk about. I'm very excited to give this a go now.

Blue Sky uses a different protocol.

Ah, my bad. I never really looked into it but I kept hearing similar stories, especially when the Meta leak happened.
