Thoughts on homesteading/small commune kinda stuff??? (lemmygrad.ml)

I've been thinking about having a small homesteading/subsistence farming commune kinda thing with some extended family and other people to insulate ourselves from increasing precaritization. Several family members are also interested in this kind of thing and quite a few have the relevant knowledge. This seems like it would be individually beneficial to us but I wonder if it's withdrawing from society too much. Or something.

What are y'all's informed commie opinions about this stuff?

Interesting points, I could see the claustrophobia really becoming a problem.

What I had in mind was much smaller scale and not totally self sufficient, probably just aiming to grow a significant percentage of what we eat and share housing/land responsibilities and costs. But I'm also not the one with the know-how and there's just been mumblings about it, not solid serious discussion.
