It looks like they have their own “vibe” and rigorously enforce it in their own community. That’s fine, it’s their service after all. Feels a bit strange to turn away potential new users when people are looking for viable alternatives
I don’t think Tildes is turning anyone away, not sure where that narrative comes from. Anyone can request an invite from the owner themselves.They are just not looking for explosive growth like some of the other services are.
In fact I think the invite system is an effective way to keep the boys away as the free-for-all signups are easier to game.
People parrot this as if getting a Tildes invite is like getting invited to join the Freemasons or something like that—it’s not that hard to get an invite.
And for those who are just going to lurk, you don’t even need to register to view everything.
Sadly tildes is invite only it seems.
From what I can recall, you aren’t missing much. The power hungry admins are intense there.

Received an invite after a week.
It isn’t bad of a turnaround time, really.

If you haven’t received an invite to join Tildes yet, just email invites@tildes.net and ask. I received one 2 weeks after requesting.
