Private groups. My user experience was similar to yours and I was close to deactivating my account before I got invited into a private group. Topics and discussions get much more interesting when people know coworkers and family members can't see it.

So like old good forums? Preferably with anonymous handler. So your coworker or family may be on the same forum, but wouldn't ever know that.

I second this. I live in in a foreign country and there's a Facebook group with people from my home country who also live here. It's a small group with (50 people or so) and I really enjoy the friendly discussions and the fact that people try to help each other out. I keep my account for groups like those.
