I genuinely don't see how anyone can overcome a social problem by joining instances full of impenetrable circles of existing friends with little interest in anyone they don't already know and are unforgiving of mistakes. People who have the attitude that the basic courtesy of even greeting someone is something that should be earned. How does one even avoid getting kicked as a new mute who isn't comfortable with talking yet, when there's a fear of outsiders entering the meetup through friends? It's by far the least welcoming social experience I've had.
