Folks, the one thing that #meetup solved was not "RSVPs for events", it was getting events in front of a motivated community and promoting them. Rebuilding the RSVP functionality isn't going to wrestle anyone from Meetup's new changes. What we need are folks who are willing to try out alternatives and report back to their community on what works best for them.
http://gettogether.community already exists and has users on it. Try that first and let's get the "community" part of meetup started.

Overheard : lately production has started dropping login requests because a certain database query takes so long it's timing out.
Web. Scale.

I should be working.
Microsoft's "Cascadia Code" is a monospace font with programming ligatures, designed for the Windows Terminal but quite nice in an editor too.

I still prefer Mozilla's Fira Mono, though. The rest of that font family may also be worth your time.
