What (non-Meta) solutions do you use for events?
I like to be able to easily see which events my friends are interested in going to and invite them, as it makes it easier to coordinate. In fact that's probably the only function of FB I like...
Is anyone on friendica? I'm trying it out, as I'm especially intrigued by the calendar function, though I'm not sure it fulfils my desires.

We are in the process of starting a Copenhagen-based Mobilizon instance for night life, and I think it has most of the functions that one would miss without Meta

It's nice that it has the ability to track signups, which DukOp doesn't, but it didn't look to me like it's possible to invite friends to an event inside the platform & see which friends are going to what like on FB
I still haven't figured out how the "group" function works though, and can't find info on Mobilizon's website

You can share the link, and ppl can attend with their Mobilizon user, their Fediverse user or their e-mail. Don't know if the list of participants can be made public?
The group opens up for a community around the events you make. You can be more people having access to the group and making events, and can share updates and resources that are not event-specific, but more community-specific.
An example...

... is this https://organisera.org/@for_haus_sake_eventsWe can be more individual users who are part of the same project, and the admin can give different moderation rights to different users.
You can send out announcements that are sent by mail or in the fediverse feed of your followers, link to resources and have discussion threads -
