I am interested in people’s view on the value of “bundled” federated services offerings. I have seen that most new fediverse offerings, like Lemmy or Mastodon, usually start with the first instance being the most popular, and then a scattering of self hosted instances.
At the same time I have run across a couple of projects that offer a range of services to members like email, chat and VPN. Specifically these two:

I was wondering if people thought there was a space for something similar in the fediverse. An organization that offers a range of fedi applications: mastodon, lemmy, etc… to members of its community.
sounds kind of like feneas.
I couldn’t tell from their website of they offer all the services they list, or its a very cool directory of fediverse offerings
They offer them, see for example the friendica instance.
Feneas provides great services, but have difficulty funding. They just started a crowdfunding campaign: https://feneas.org/open-letter-feneas-in-the-future/
