Big question: Why?
I remember when I canceled my hacker space membership. What triggered me was a poorly-planned expansion. The expansion was triggered because the hacker space was essentially turning into a below-cost co-working space, and the whole thing smelled unsustainable.
A few months later I got a "save the hacker space" email. Turns out that, with their expansion, the city they were in decided they were too big to exempt from ADA. They couldn't use the new space that they needed more memberships for, and they couldn't afford the renovations to meet ADA.
I didn't like being put on the hook for poor planning to subsidize what was turning into a below-cost co-working space, so I just lost interest in the community.
