Wondering if #Mastodon might be a good home for the Detention Solidarity Network #detsolnet as a *small* instance?

The network is a work in progress & will work as a shared space for academics, activists, journalists, lawyers and others interested in detention & related issues.

Does that seem like a good idea? Is the #fediverse a good space for such networks? Feel free to respond even if you're unlikely to be a part of the network. I'm trying to understand Mastodon. #FediverseAMA
