Yup. Facebook groups are the lowest common denominator UX of niche communities.
Horrible product that only works because niche networks effects are almost impossible to bootstrap.
Not any more.
If I’m not mistaken I think nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft was talking abt the use cases of Facebook groups before

Location based groups, like city or town, are something people always like to join. Definitely something missing today from Nostr. I’ve wondered who is using Nostr in the cities I’ve traveled through the past year.. asking and hoping you’re seen in global chat isn’t exactly effective today.
And often the location based groups are hybrid physical good / rental marketplaces too. All possible on Nostr.
