Thanks for the update/info. Workarounds are possible to set up, manage and access a Group function, however IMO it needs to be simple. Otherwise potential new users will simply choose to stay on their existing social media platforms. My two cents ($CAD).

I agree, it's just a question of where the resources come from.
Mastodon has a half-made built-in groups feature similar to Facebook Groups, but it isn't finished yet. (Techy info at https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/pull/19059 )
Mastodon just has a small crew of developers who depend on donations and grants to keep going, they have to choose what to prioritise rather than make everything. (They deliberately don't have advertisers or sell people's data.)
