What’s with the random dunking on social/sporting clubs? It’s one of the few ways available for many people to enjoy their hobbies and make new friends. “Ew?” Are you serious?
Email might be a good way to alert the broader public about things that have been organised. But for the smaller-scale stuff? For organising what your group’s response should be to begin with? That needs to happen either face-to-face (in which case the question becomes: how do you organise a time and place for that) or on real social media. Email just isn’t really cut-out for that kind of task. It doesn’t have to be corporate social media. Matrix chats or a Friendica group would be just as good in theory. But in practice I’ve never heard of that actually being done.
And just because you’re apparently anti-social or whatever, doesn’t mean everyone else is. “Ew.” What is it the kids say? “Touch grass”?
Ok. I don’t know where you are, but that’s definitely not the case here. It’s literally all done through Facebook Groups and Events.
Same for sporting and social clubs. If you’re not on Facebook, you’re not getting updates.
America. I took part in the No Kings rally, among other events, and all of the information was communicated through email.
Also, sporting and social clubs? Ew.
Like, WTF? Is there something wrong with social and hobby clubs?
