Wade put it better than I'd have. my experience with used meetup shifted completely once I paid attention to vetting people properly.

Three things that changed used meetup for me:

  • reply inside a day or the thread goes cold specifically for used meetup
  • leave a fortnight before deciding anything about used meetup
  • screenshot anything that feels off before you block on the used meetup side
  • budget two weeks before deciding anything about used meetup

I judge used meetup almost entirely on the everyday experience now. What decided it for me with used meetup was how it feels to use.
