Hey Product Hunt 👋
I'm Adam, founder of Snugs. Short version of why this exists:
Facebook Groups used to be great. Small rooms, real conversation, people who actually knew each other. Then the feed swallowed everything, ads got injected, and the algorithm started deciding who saw what. Admins lost control of their own groups.
Nothing replaced it properly. Discord is for gamers. Slack is for work. Circle is for creators selling courses. Reddit is anonymous strangers.
So I'm building what Facebook Groups should have stayed:
- Posts in time order. No feed, no algorithm.
- No ads. Admins pay a small monthly fee instead.
- Admins actually control their snug. We don't override, shadowban, or "boost" posts.
- Your data is yours. Export anytime, delete anytime.
We're early. The product works but there's a lot we haven't built yet. If you've ever run a community and felt like the platform was fighting you - I'd love to hear what you wish worked differently. I'll be in the comments all day.
- Adam
Me and my friends have been using this to coordinate our trail clean up group among other things. Great app!
