Here in Seattle the local Haskell meetup has just "migrated" to a mix of GitHub, Slack, and Google Groups. The reason was the price of Meetup.com ($20/month IIRC).
I guess with this announcement many other groups will follow.
- robjan 7y agoThe problem is that how do new members discover this meetup? One of the really cool uses of Meetup I have found has been meeting new people and discovering new groups when moving to a new city. That discovery will disappear if everyone does their own thing.
- darkarmani 7y agoI guess you advertise on Meetup.com and direct users to confirm on a different site. ;)
- symlinkk 7y agoWhich costs money and is exactly what everyone here is trying to avoid ;)
