I already gave an intro over at #new users > Philip Durbin but I run a little, informal, open source meetup close enough to Boston (in Brookline) that I think it counts. Our website is https://bostonopen.dev and our next meetup is on Oct. 15. @Harsh Kapadia and I will be there. It'll be fun! :tada:
Gabor Szabo (Sep 26 2023 at 03:41):If I am not mistaken you don't use the Meetup platform, do you? Interesting that you use the name though.
Philip Durbin (Sep 26 2023 at 11:12):I checked and the term "meetup" has been used in the US since 1900. :grinning:
Philip Durbin (Sep 26 2023 at 11:13):No, we don't use the Meetup platform because of the cost (a little under $20 per month) but we do have an open discussion about it: https://github.com/orgs/bostonopen/discussions/3
