Are you asking people about migrate now vs. not at all or are you also including migrate later as an option? Some people may want to hold off migrating because of a single bug, ie. not being able to comment on Android or lack of meetup support?
We do now actually have (very basic) meetup support! (And commenting on Android is also fixed!)
On the more object-level: I would quite strongly prefer to move now, but there is a commenting field in the form, so if a lot of people are saying yes conditionally on us fixing one specific bug, then I think it would make sense for us to fix that bug/missing feature before we move. In generla
Can you announce that. Can you also not ask for locations and instead ask people to input location? Like the old site. I don’t like the privacy violation of letting my browser know where I am, but I want to be able to put in my city and find my local meetup. I also travel to other cities and would like to be able to see meetups before I get there.
Also my meetup has several organisers who will want to post events. Is there support for that?
We’re basically giving it a day or so of “make sure we’ve caught obvious bugs” and “get a bunch of meetups listed” and then will have a big announcement.

Right now it’s actually both the case that:
I think you can add multiple organizers to a group (not 100% sure we shipped that but it was in the works), but, meanwhile:
There are not currently restrictions on who can post an event for a given group. (This is just an interim thing because implementing a robust permission system is a fair amount of work, but meanwhile we wanted to remove trivial inconveniences to getting events up and populated)
Can you also not ask for locations and instead ask people to input location?

Just tried commenting on Android, and it indeed now works!

We do plan to implement both options.
