Meetup essentially had a monopoly, you could go to a new city or foreign country and immediately connect with likeminded people. I guess it wasn't profitable enough to pay off their VC so they kept changing it and adding dumb "features" and raising the price... and now it's basically useless.
It's owned by Bending Spoons now. Unclear if there's anyone working on it anymore beyond keeping it running.
