I wonder what that looks like fleshed out a little, though. Is that a mandatory or voluntary payment? And by paying for what they use is that per message or per month like a subscription?

True, but the format is unique. The post format breaks up the flow of chatter into easily discernible units of conversation.

IRC, Discord and others have the continuous stream of thought with no beginning or end. On the other extreme, Instagram and TikTok require an image or video to post at all.

So I would say that FB groups have a distinct utility / identity separate from just other users being there.
