Many people in our community's Facebook group are extremely disenchanted with Zuckerberg's decision to remove all constraints on misinformation mongers.

I'd like to see WordPress.org -- or someone who wants to make some money -- create a plugin that replicated the functionality of a private Facebook group.

Include the FB UX as one option, but make it more flexible if desired.

Does the Fediverse have the capacity for private groups? Asking because I'm in some Facebook groups for therapists (resource sharing, general support, not private client info!) and many are looking to ditch Meta finally but are struggling to find alternatives. Basically needs to be a closed community that can be moderated.
