I've been trying to convince Facebook groups I am in to make a forum for the group or at least use Discourse, but, *sigh* they all were like this isn't 1990 boomer Luddite!

I've been trying to convince Facebook groups I am in to make a forum for the group or at least use Discourse, but, *sigh* they all were like this isn't 1990 boomer Luddite! Learn how to use Facebook! even as the website and mobile app become less accessible. Honestly, if the #Fediverse ever makes something like Facebook groups, completely closed off communities where people can go to post about books or TV shows or just a common thing and nobody from the outside could post to it, that would be the thing that makes Fedi popular. Oh, and no character limit! No character limits posts will always win, especially when talking about a topic or something. #Forum #Discourse

I’d go one step further and say that this is what makes the most sense on the fediverse and it’s a little embarrassing that it’s taken this long and it doesn’t exist.

@[email protected] @[email protected] well, there's Discourse and NodeBB which are both federating, and Flarum soon.
I think there's definitely a space for a "Facebook groups upgrade" software, so it's on my mind for NodeBB recently as well.
