I have been assuming that reddit (and thus redit clone software) is 'find a place to build small private communities in a sane way. " - admittedly I have not used it, so it's just assumption. I can say from experience that wordpress+buddypress handles multiple private / public / partial each / optional for each group and profile.. all these things right out of the box, free, and WP is installable via softalicious on basic shared hosting environments.. as well as one click installs at places like DO I believe.. I like your calling to build more private group options, it's something I have hobbied with for more than a decade. I think ultimately the roads for this end on paid instances that have an easy method for not just deploying - but migrating to other servers and moving domains and such as well - there becomes this push pull from edge cases of speech that will make the need to split and move the groups. editing to add deeper dive into similar things in another thread popping today: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36141083 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36141083
