The Philosophy community is the most organised I've seen yet
On their sixth update of their ongoing migration project. The earlier posts are linked from this one. For comparison.

Update 6 on the migration 2018-10-14:
Things are going much better than what I initially expected on MeWe. A few of our philosophers are already posting there and are getting fine responses from new and old/refugee members.
My guess is that MeWe will be the next home for our awesome philosophy community since it already has everything we need.
If our experiment goes well, it will be very easy to recommend and encourage everyone to move over to MeWe if they so choose.
Since registering on MeWe does not cost a lot of time, I suggest our members to make an account in there and join us at MeWe to get a clear sense of what it has to offer. You will not lose too much. You can always delete your account if you don't like it.
On the one hand, I am making this suggestion based on the understanding I have formed in the past few days about the risks and benefits of moving to a new platform. I cannot see other options to be viable in long-run. However, if you like a Twitter-like environment, then diaspora* et. all. will feel like a super-charged Twitter to you and you will feel totally at home in there. Nevertheless, there won't be any moderation, community, or collection there. So, the experience will be quite different.
On the other hand, if you like the idea of having a moderated community/group in which everything is related to the main topic of the group, then your options are limited to MeWe, and a few others.
Please feel free to register with MeWe and have a look at our Philosophy group there. You might like it. And again, if you don't like it, you can always delete your account and all of your posts and comments will be deleted off the platform immediately upon your request (the same as what will happen if you delete your G+ account).
I would LOVE to see you guys there.
Cheers!
Eric
