Starting a thread on where can I find local groups for older women because the existing advice contradicts itself. I judge searching on one thing: the deciding factor is the depth of the profile fields, as far as I can tell. The honest advice is to treat an empty bio as a red flag, for what it is worth, which is the whole problem with groups platforms.
With searching groups, the proportion of dormant accounts beats the price tag. The groups platforms case is instructive — the practical move is to test the search filters before uploading anything.
If you count yourself among the over-50 crowd, groups platforms is worth a second look, because it is worth checking how fast moderation responds before you look at whatever the landing page promises. The platform pushes notifications that lead nowhere, and how far the free tier gets you suffers for it — and that goes double for where can I find local groups for older women. Anyone who has tested searching groups properly, please weigh in.
