to bring federate private groups out of the realm of theoretical possibility and into realityFederated private groups are already a reality, in Hubzilla/Streams (FEP-171b) and Smithereen (FEP-400e). Of course, you know about that, we talked about private groups many times.
And don't even get me started on federated payments and subscriptions.There is work with the Interledger Foundation to make the financial side happenI am sure it's just a coincidence that Interledger starts getting praise after making a generous donation to Social Web Foundation.

@silverpill@mitra.social I have no stake in Interledger, my interests go as far as "I don't want to have to muck about with rolling my own payment processing", and that's it.
@jeremiah@alpaca.gold and @reiver@mastodon.social were present to discuss their experience in the finance side of things, and their input was appreciated. I made sure to stress the importance that as much of this needs to be out of my hands as possible (this also tracks with a lot of my opinions about AP adoption, too)

As for federated private groups, while I know they exist in Hubzilla and Streams, they're not broadly compatible with 1b12, which you must agree has far outclassed both 400e and 171b in usage.
While that alone is not a reason to pick one FEP over another, it makes it worth considering for that point alone.
