Why did you move away from focusing on event listing? I’ve been thinking about this problem recently.

  Partey.io exists

  Mostly due to the cold start/dead platform problem - I do plan on listing them more prominently but the critical mass isn't quite there yet, hence the focus on activities for now!

    That matters for discovery, but lots of event organizers and hosts just need a consistent, simple UX for event signups, sharing details to attendees, and managing updates/invites/changes. If they have a mostly consistent or invite-only set of attendees, the network effects don’t matter. Imagine a Boy Scout troop, Alcoholics Anonymous, pub trivia, blood drives, local alumni association, churches, user groups. Many businesses have this problem but don’t use Facebook or discord because of the login wall and unprofessional vibes. They would pay for a real tool that makes consistent event/group hosting easy. IMO you’re getting interest/engagement in spite of the critical feedback because people who regularly hosts events need that

      > but don’t use Facebook or discord because of the login wall and unprofessional vibes Just to clarify, your improvement on the login wall is the suggestion you made earlier to allow forms to be filled out before login/sign-up, right? I've done this for groups [1] and activities [2]. [1] https://radius.to/groups/new https://radius.to/groups/new [2] https://radius.to/activities/new https://radius.to/activities/new
