One of the biggest flaws in Drupal that contributes to new user adoption is the Block Management page. Out of the box D8 almost provides you with everything you need to start building simple pages and once you get a hang of Content Types, Blocks and Views you can almost build a complete site. But as site builder when you start adding multiple blocks but want them to show up on different pages it becomes very difficult to manage page specific visibility.
Site managers, (advanced) site builders.
The solution? Block Visibility Groups (BVG) → . Block visibility groups is a simplified and more native looking solution for the Context Module as it provides you with a better way to organize blocks that are visible for different conditions. The U.I. is exactly the same as the core block management setup and allows you to have different groups while also creating a default group.

It's likely this issue predates Contrib.social: some issue and comment data are missing.
The Ideas project is being deprecated. As discussed in a core committer meeting issues that are adding modules are being moved to the Drupal CMS project for discussion.
We aren't really using block visibility settings currently and will move away from it completely with XB, so we won't need this module.
