Consider that FB's business is advertising, not groups. Attempts to unbundle that have failed because they can't sustain themselves. FB and google just gatekeep too much of the advertising pie. Things like substack attempt to use alternative models, but that is limited imho, their market size is not that big. If someone could unbundle advertising, we already have had the unbundled version of FB groups before: forums, communities etc.

Not every businesses need to generate billions or even more than double digit millions, I think lots of people/teams will be happy to find market which can make them 1-100k/month. Problem with unbundling groups might be convenience of interaction inside FB, if unbundled not many people may want to sign up and interact.
