I’m looking for something where I can do some local community building, I’m guessing mastodon might work but I think the ideal is something like facebook where I can join a group tied to a common idea and a location, as well as being a bit more personal. Is there anything like that?
I didn’t. I was working in IT at a college when Facebook launched, and they sent email spam to all my users.
Yeah, I was one of the students at those first dozen colleges when it rolled out.
