Could Lemmy be used as a classroom tool (like having a classroom's own instance) (lemmy.world)

I feel like it would be an interesting learning tool cuz I learn a ton on here and it gets me writing without anyone having to hold a gun to my head. I mean like even essay-length or at least essay-worthy treatments of things I respond to in longer-form, and even for the shorter-form stuff

Just like you can have your own private Stack Overflow server for your company.

It sounds like an interesting idea but I'd make the server defederated from everything else to start with.

Yeah, i captured that in my edit :)

Edit: I also love how you can set it up to "trick" someone into producing a much larger œuvre of work and they can have a blast doing it. Like with very little coercion
