A Facebook group called A Group That Makes Small Decisions For You helps people make small decisions

A Group That Makes Small Decisions For You brings together nearly 185,000 people from around the world to resolve the sorts of low-stakes questions and choices we all dither over.

Members vote on each other’s quandaries from a handful of given options, and give their reasoning in the comments.

The group stands out within the increasingly desolate Facebook newsfeed, not just for the volume of its posts but also the intensity of engagement.

A Group That Makes Small Decisions For You recognizes the predicament of an abundance of choice and the desire for guidance.

It was created in 2019 by a group of friends who’d met through another Facebook group, Give Me Your Money .

The rise in people living alone, or without close relationships, also means more are missing a casual sounding board.

Admins will step in when someone seems to be overly reliant on the group and posting too frequently.

They also work hard to maintain the stated boundary of “small and medium decisions only” But even minor dilemmas can generate heated debate.

Older people tend to suffer less from decision fatigue, Schwartz says.
