Do you use MeWe or another platform? Should THW start a page there? There is no end of places that people will refuse to go for one reason or another. If I were to object to Facebook, it would be because the interface is real pain for actually engaging with the community in an ongoing way. No threading with decent presentation, no embedding links that looks decent, just kind of crap. On the other hand, three quarters of the planet is there so the network effect really trumps any other concern. THW has a pretty solid forum and a Facebook page. Spreading social media too thin ensures that you don't achieve critical mass in any given place, rather than channeling people to where they can actually interact with each other as a community. The Facebook page already exists. That gives it an infinite advantage over any new split of the community. If people don't want to go there, they can come here to the forums which is beholden to very few platforms.

There is Dyscord, but I agree with squidlord that several places will thin things.
