Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.Problem
It is difficult to change default visibility setting which is used for topics, events and nodes. We had a request from a customer to change the default option to "public" instead of "community".
Solution
Add a new option in admin panel where we could change default visibility for all content. (see attached image).

There could be more use-cases if we add more visibility options (e.g. only for my friends / followers).
