is there an indieweb equivalent to private twitter accounts? when i still used twitter i had a private account i only let close friends follow so i could post more personal stuff. closest equivalent on activitypub stuff is requiring follow requests and posting everything as followers only, but i don't know of anything for specifically indieweb?

What is discoverability
#
Loqi
Discovery is a variety of methods for finding content, websites, communities, or people to follow on the web including search, directories, recommendation engines, tags, or other serendipitous methods; there are also discovery-algorithms for developers https://indieweb.org/Discoverability
