How to stay in touch without Instagram? (self.asklemmy)

I've been using Instagram as a way to stay up to date with all the local community events or small businesses doing events around me for the past couple of years.

With everything happening at Meta and TikTok, I've deleted and uninstalled most social media accounts and apps.

Do y'all have any suggestions for keeping up to date on local events around your neighborhoods without having to use Instagram or Facebook? Do I have to sign up for 30 email newsletters?

My Nextdoor app is full of local events. Maybe yours is too?

I’ve seen Nextdoor for parts of Los Angeles and it’s full of garbage, making it less useful. It really depends on how your neighbors are using it.
