Hi guys, same Iranian guy here, first I want to say I really appreciate you guys helping me, love you guys you all are genuinely amazing people.

I read all your comments in my previous post and one thing I realized I'm not qualified for this at all. This is too dangerous and puts my life and many of my friends at risk.

So in the spirit of being pragmatic here and finding best solution meanwhile I figure that out. Where can we have a private community with moderation and admin tools and multi-topic discussions on the fediverse? Is that even a thing? I know that's not how fediverse works so the answer is probably a hard No. Then where should we go? Discord have all this but that's not my preference at all. I know Reddit has private subs but I don't like reddit like many of you guys. What is the compromise here what do you suggest I should do?

Well said I have a understanding of privacy tools that benefit us but as a user not the programmer or anything and that's my pitfall here. My biggest fear is that if I ran a Matrix sever or Fediverse instance or a self-hosted forum like Flarum or humhub on a VPS and since all this is first time for me somehow my mistake put others at risk. I can not accept that. That's what really scares me. I can not just do it and hope for the best that's why I'm looking into already existing options even if they are corporate centralized American entities
