Fediverse Welcome Pod proposal cont'd
Admins and moderators of Welcome Pod instances could work together ( or even moslty be the same people )
The instances could have a welcome committee helping people get started on the Fediverse
We can close signups on an instance if accounts go over a limit
We can re-open if accounts go down to 75% of limit, e.g. due to people moving to another instance

Fediverse Welcome Pod proposal cont'd
Welcome instances can gently encourage them to find long-term instances once they've had some time on the Fediverse
No requirement for people to use the Welcome Pod.
The Welcome Pod would solicit donations from Fediverse to fund the effort
Welcome Pod service could host multiple Fediverse services, Mastodon.WelcomePod.example, PixelFed.wp.e, BookWyrm.wp.e, etc
Wording and logic on all of the above can certainly be improved.
Name can also be better
