Thank you for keeping the flame burning all this time, Stamatis! The hybrid meetup in February 2025 [1] was excellent, and proved that there are still great speakers and plenty of people interested in attending.
A few meetups that I attend use Luma. It is good and free. We should consider dropping Meetup.com and moving to that.
