Learnings
- Community platforms live or die on the quality of the people, not the technology.
- Keeping it simple - event listings, speaker profiles, resources - turned out to be the right call. Feature creep helps no one.
- The Meetup platform eventually became a liability more than an asset. Owning your own community infrastructure matters.
