I really like the concept of groups, but as others have said, I wish they were more active. :/ The non-group forums are only a bit more active, and the most active topic here is the introduction thread.

NosyCat made a fantastic blog post about this that's stayed on my mind since I read it. Interactions won't be as fast here as they are on modern social media, but I believe everyone should embrace that. Not getting immediate "engagement" doesn't mean Spacehey is dead. You can breathe and take your time here - but it's important to try being social on a social website!

I love it here even tho people aren't that active. I just love how everyone on spacehey is doing their own thing, and chats when they feel like it. Super lowkey

I'm really enjoying them so far, had a bit of interaction - there's a lot of potential, though it depends on us to make it work. That said, I won't hark on activity too much because I think in part activity is a side-effect of design - there's no easy unified way to see activity across them, so I have to dig through all my groups every day to see if there's new conversation to take part in.

I kinda wish there was a unified page that you could visit that would show recent activity across all our groups, as a pure timeline and paginated for longer lists (to keep it resource-light - one of my favorite things about this site is it'd run stable on a toaster)

Being able to find the new post or bulletin in a group I want to take part in without digging really would make interaction simpler. Also the ability to either reply to a post inside the forum thread or tag users in the thread to make it easier to refer to previous conversation and build on it. I did try sending some suggestions to support on that front but even
if it was never implemented, I'm glad we have the groups at all, this
site is a real sleek piece of work and I'm excited to see where it goes
next.

As for this group, from what I've seen it's a good group and I'm glad to be here!

its hard for me to post more often because anxiety stuff but ye i like the opportunity for talking to others stuff
i probably wont make my own group though since smaller groups seem to be consistently dead after a week or two
