The gup.pe groups are not Mastodon groups, but Activitypub groups that the immer.space project has created according to the standards To allow Mastodon users to easily create groups to use, which can be done by Friendica users and those of all link aggregator or forumverse platforms (from Lotide to NodeBB). Lemmy also supports them, although he does so in an unsatisfactory way.
the fact that it is in the roadmap is important, but it means that it is not there. Moreover, although piefed is a well-optimized platform, bringing the following of users will certainly entail a burden for the servers that host it And we will have to understand how much it is worth: one of the nice things about reddit like software is that you cannot follow other users 🤣
Yeah but mastodon plan to support group. Currently it exist at the form of an external service.
Considering PieFed fast development, it will be done. Lot lemmy admins are improving PieFed by sending us feedback and also opened a PieFed instance. :)
But it will be supported this year. It is on PieFed roamap for 2025.
Currentry PieFed support mastodon group : a.gup.pes.

Yes, but he’s been saying that for years…
I’m sure that when he implements groups he will do it in a way where they will be usable only by Mastodon users (a bit like Misskey did)
You are talking about Mastodon dev ?
Yes, of course 😅
