I'm in half a dozen Facebook groups. I mainly use Facebook for family communication, here's pictures of the kids here's first and last day of school yada yada.
My neighborhood also has a pretty substantial group where everybody's in it and while they're a salty salty bunch of people it is the only way we can communicate effectively with each other.
I'm also in a couple of meme groups for an occasional laugh.
I think Facebook's two biggest problems are number one the lack of a nominity, I don't want to talk about politics on Facebook, i'd have a bunch of people threatening to come over to my house and shoot me, The other problem is that the value of the contributors in the Facebook side of things is much lower. The subject matter experts just aren't there, and every other bell end just wants to fight you every time they get a lucky roll in a game and try to correlate it with crap that doesn't make any sense.
I left a dreamlight valley Facebook group because an admin wanted to fight me over a misinterpretation of what some developers said in a live chat. Meanwhile this is the same admin that absolutely forbids anyone to tell anyone to Google something, so day in and day out he was just the same 10 posts of how to do the most mundane things.
