I operate meetup events. My choices are meetup which is overpriced, or Facebook. Unless you have any suggestions

Also, the benefit of this stretches far what I do. It’s the easily corrupted dckheads who won’t be absorbing this stuff on a daily basis.

The reality is, I believe a huge factor in all the shit going on is Facebook at the moment. Laws like this are highly beneficial

Yeah unfortunately when Bending Spoons buy out companies, development typically slows or even stalls and the subscription costs go astronomical. They’ve done the same with Komoot, Evernote and a bunch of others.

Even their website summarises how shit they are once you wrap quotes around the right word:

We acquire and “improve” iconic products. Supported by dozens of proprietary technologies and an elite team of engineers, scientists, and designers
