Comment on Best place for a community alternative to Facebook group?
JustOneMoreCat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 weeks agoYou should be able to "archive a group as admin, which essentially shuts it down. I haven’t tried but I’ve seen it happen in other groups. And yeah, it’s really disturbing what people will accept from FB for the sake of inertia and comfort. I’ve told a couple friends about Meta using the localhost loophole for tracking and recommended they delete the apps and just use the web version if they need to, and they all still have the apps. Who even needs privacy, right? Sigh

It looks like at one time you could archive the group but not anymore.

I just took a peek and you’re right. But there is an option to “pause” a group, I didn’t explore enough to see if it could be permanent. The rule that you can only delete a group when it has no members is absurd, wtf

Only “absurd” in the context of a user. Not really in the context of a business with 3B MAU who will not leave no matter what.
