Reading the post, I initially thought you literally went and got donuts and drove around to drop them off to local people in your fediverse. That would be a really cool way to meet people for those working from home, but obviously it would be logistically difficult.
I agree with you that it probably doesn't quite work the same as a 1-on-1 or group interaction since it's all public. In some ways it reminds me too much of the pandemic era where we'd have a "party" over zoom. It never felt quite as authentic as a real party where you could chat directly with a coworker off to the side and really be honest about without worrying about other people listening in.
