Has anybody considered running a Mobilizon server? (self.fediverse)

I was shocked to see that there are no English-language Mobilizon servers. It seems like it may be an ideal secondary service for certain existing fediverse communities and was wondering if anybody here had considered it.

For those unaware, Mobilizon looks to fill the role of something like Facebook groups for the fediverse. I believe it is compatible with both Mastodon and Lemmy through the groups actor in the ActivityPub spec but provides additional functionality dealing with scheduled events and shared resources.

Would it be worth checking out now, or is it still not really worth it?

It wasn't a bad platform. I think it's worth checking out. I'm not sure if the UX has changed, but even if it hasn't it might work for some people. Just after having used things like Facebook Groups/Events and Meetup.com it didn't really make sense to me and a few people who used my instance.
