If you create a Fediverse group, Mastodon will label the account as a Group.

Although Mastodon itself doesn't support groups yet, it is nice that you can use groups *with* Mastodon by tagging the group.

I also want to point out that @Gargron is working on group support for Mastodon, and it does seem to be a high priority.

If you prefer Mastodon because you like it, it might be worth waiting for this feature.

But if you can't wait and you need to set up a group right now, it's great that the Fediverse gives you options!

There's lots of Fediverse server software that supports group that are usable with Mastodon. Off the top of my head, Some of them are:

1. Chirp
2. Gup.pe
3. Lemmy

I use Friendica for Groups because it seems to be the most mature option with the most robust feature set.
