    How far is the release? I remember from about a year ago the apps would come ‘soon’ onto the app stores, but it’s still not available yet

      The new app is now available in pre-release state (and works quite well for me), and this group implementation is on their github in what looks like a functional state waiting to be officially released.

      But yes, they have been teasing it for years, so it is correct to be sceptical. But it looks like it is really finally happening now.

      It is not in a Pixelfed release yet, only merged into their public github repo, so I doubt there are any examples other that some internal test groups by the developer.

      It seems to be inspired by Facebook groups, yes. I am not sure if there is an event integration yet.
