Hey fediverse folks -- is there a good model for handling closed or semi-closed 'discussion groups' that retain a poster's identity across instances?

People over in FB land use groups *a lot*, and I'm unclear how to model that in my mental map of how mastodon/etc work in an activitypub world other than separate local instances with closed timelines.

I should read up on current stuff though. :D One of these days thinking of making a tiny single-user instance app as a learning exercise.
