How much is too much?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"MeWe\"

This post is about MeWe.com<\/a>, one of the new social networks that are popping up all over the interwebz. I’ve mentioned them before in this post about social networks<\/a> that are nude-friendly. If anything, MeWe is that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Great, so what’s the problem?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Granted, it is a luxury ‘problem’ but I do want to point it out. Since more and more people are fleeing to MeWe (even more since Google+ announced it will close it’s doors<\/a> on August 2019), this means more and more nudists and naturists are heading over to MeWe too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tonnes of groups on MeWe<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Now one thing that makes MeWe work, as far as I’ve seen, is that it’s great with communities and groups. There are loads of public groups you can join on a plenitude of topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With the current global mindset about nudity, groups regarding that aren’t considered ‘open’. We all understand that. This shouldn’t stop you from looking for nudist and naturist groups though. There are plenty of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And that’s where things get tricky<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are lots of them, and for some reason more and more people, probably with the best intentions, open new nudist \/ naturist groups and invite others to join those groups.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All very noble, but…<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As you see, I am a member of 5 naturist groups at the moment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

(Everyone gets a free membership to MeWe News, which is read-only and it’s Hotel California for now: you can check out any time you want but you can never leave.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As I am writing this, I have invitations for 4 more naturist groups waiting. I will however not join them, since it’s enough to try and keep up with those 5 groups. Truth be told, I am ignoring some of them because it’s just too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Imagine if I were to join those 4 others. Even more too much. I’d have to find someone to pay me for interacting with all of them because I wouldn’t have time for a job any more. Does that sound in any way familiar yet?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don’t get me wrong: MeWe is a seriously great place for naked people. It’s just a bit of a bummer that so many well-meaning people are creating dozens (or more) groups, which isn’t helpful to create a more tight-knit naturist community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

INF-FNI?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I wonder if there would be a good way that INF-FNI<\/a> would be able to get this organised. Since they are the international federation of naturists, I think there would be a nice opportunity for them to lay some more groundwork. Either that, or the local (country-wide) federations could set up camp there and create a kind of community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the moment the naturists on MeWe are becoming a group of shards that spreads out more and more…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
