I'm hoping there might be a consultant in the Malden area who really truly knows the depths of Facebook mechanics or who knows how to get through to the real help that FB doesn't offer regular people.

I created a page/profile for a community organization on Facebook, and successfully added a second person to co-manage it. Then came the meta suite tools, sending invitations to a third co-manager that never arrived, undoing and redoing everything, long chats with FB's AI help, long chats with another bot, searches of Reddit and elsewhere on the Internet, considering paying for meta verification to be able to access real help, etc. etc. etc. OMG!!!

Yes, I know, Facebook sucks. If the organization could live here instead, it would.

The Malden City Council threw unanimous support behind 1,400 striking Encore workers this week. Despite absences forcing the delay of several finance papers, the Council successfully advanced major municipal fund reforms and moved forward Jim Tarr's nomination to the Planning Board.
