Is it safe to say that if I create an account somewhere with follow requests restriction turned on and boost all @ mentions I get, then this account will act as a kind of private group on Mastodon?
About groups, is there still any work going on to implement native groups in Mastodon?

Just putting a word or two in, because I am interested in the answer and can't find somewhere to follow the thread otherwise.
I'm also desperately looking for a groups sollution to offer members of my FB groups and subscription services won't work for that.
Best "group" sollution I have seen so far is following hashtags here on the Fediverse. UI is still too "geeky" for older users, though, so I'm still looking.

@MaryPot @FediTips @MastodonEngineering As @harald mentioned Hubzilla has groups support. Friendica too. But I think their UX are way to difficult and unpolished to use for most people (my opinion).
So far I think NodeBB forums and Lemmy are the closest you'll get the FB groups experience, but they are still a bit too cumbersome. -

@MastodonEngineering #mastodev #activitypub #groupsRestrictions on who can follow you do not directly affect the visibility of your posts.
Post visibility is only affected by the visibility settings of your posts. More info on these at https://fedi.tips/who-can-see-my-posts-in-mastodon-how-do-i-send-dms-in-mastodon
The only way restricting followers affects visibility is if you make posts with "followers-only" visibility and also restrict who can follow you, which indirectly affects who can see your followers-only posts.
I'm not sure what Mastodon's in-house groups situation is.

Discourse has just added Fediverse support too, so this is another option for groups.
