Meetup shot itself in the foot with the new look that effectively "siloes" you from finding new events. In addition, instead of one summary email that could come once per week/month by default they bombard you with hundreds of worthless emails from evety small meetup. So you mass unsubscribe from everything. Their rework that happened some time ago is basically digg 4.0 level of failure. I still try to use the site when I remember about it. Yet it is so damn bad; poor search, poor communication, you cant even find how many meetups you attended (possibility of verified badges or w/e). But this is the best we got. Maybe one day they get some sane designers, current design basically sabotages their core product. This is still the best place for discovery of events. I think I went to around 80-90 meetups and it is a pity that they also introduced this terrible monetization (people from silicon valley dont want to pay 2 dollars per attendee, imagine how it looks for the rest of the world - lots of groups dont use meetup anymore).
