Ask HN: What does GenZ use in place of Facebook Events?
I’m 26 and have been using Facebook since middle school. At a certain point, the only thing I used it for was Facebook Events, because all of my friends were already on the platform. But also, it’s just a super easy way to view event details and track attendance.

I noticed that my sister, who is 19 and never had Facebook, is in a separate WhatsApp group for each event that is created with friends. I think that’s a little crazy and inefficient. It’s so wild to me that people her age probably don’t even know that something like Facebook events exists!

Besides for people like her, there are plenty around my age that are beginning to leave Facebook. So I figured, why shouldn’t we have something similar that isn’t tied to Facebook?

I hacked together https://www.inviteable.app. I don’t really know if there’s a market for it. I’m curious what others think.
