Meetup is now owned by Bending Spoons, who have also enshittified wetransfer, Evernote, eventbrite, AOL, vimeo. They buy decent products that never exploded to ipo status, fire everyone and milk the rest for whatever they can charge.

    Why does one company need to own meetup and eventbrite?

    Is that not a monopoly? How does it not violate any anti-trust laws?

    Edit to add: how long before we see a fediverse events app?
