Almost all of the issues with FB groups were them being closed and private, and poorly moderated without the sunlight of outside eyes.
I could imagine #Mastodon groups that were "semi-private" in that they did not show up in any public feeds of folks but that all the groups could be "browsed" like Twitter or Mastodon lists are publically browseable now.

I think that would be the best of both worlds.
