Meetup has been dying for a while. I have been part of few meetups and almost all of them died due to low participation. I doubt meetup is doing well as a company and this is probably their last shot at trying to stay afloat. I would jump ship.

My experience across several groups has been different, as recently as 2023. Meetup is one of the few platforms that reliably gets random people to show up to your event.

We paid quite a bit more than $50/year for fewer members than OP, too. Their new price is still less than we were paying for a couple of our groups.

Meetup brings a ton of people into my Toastmasters club. It sure is expensive though.
