For all things related to the Aussie gardens. Plants, lawns, ugly fences, bare patches.
Please follow the instance rules and keep discussions civil and respectful.
I'm not into gardening, but this is such a pain for me. My sporting groups and political activism all happens on Facebook and/or Facebook Messenger. I so wish it didn't, but that's the reality right now, and one person's objection is very unlikely to shift it.
If you can though, Friendica is a fediverse alternative to Facebook which you could consider.
Same but school stuff (parent groups for the class, fund raising discussions) and all family friendly community events are events on Facebook. I want to leave, but if I do I lose too much information and connection. So Facebook it is
My old community garden used a Signal group which worked really well.
I'm currently part of a bushcare group which I believe use Facebook but not sure how active it is. We have a regular monthly schedule which I show up to in-person.
I can second the annoyance of people using Facebook groups for everything. I can't control what I see on Facebook so I won't use it. I've found other groups impossible to join for this reason - like my local bike user group. Real shame because I'd like to join but I found the in-person meetings were largely discussing things in the Facebook group.
