It initially begun as an email thread, but we settled on WhatsApp owing to, well, most people having WhatsApp.

Any Meetups in NL? Im far from the Randstad, would've loved to host one otherwise

I'd rather not go there. Too crowded, too busy, too much violence. I wouldn't mind a city, though. Is Zwolle an option?

Edit: just saw your profile, sorry never mind ^^'

Nice one! As a seasoned industry veteran, I've been wanting to have something like this, and while there are many evening tech meetups going on around here, your schedule is much more suitable for the otherwise busy life! *starts karma mining to qualify*

Filled the form and included my email with the HN user ID just in case you'd be willing to deliver the meeting details that way when they've been decided.

The phone number is not associated with WhatsApp (never had it, and won't), but it works with Signal in case it would be more viable option for meetup info comms than email. Who knows, perhaps even a shadow group already exists there, or has potential to get established?

Thank you for arranging such gatherings, hoping to meet up soon!

We've been organising this for a while (a year? more?). It's quite relaxed - just a coffee morning every month or two. I'm sure there are other HN local meetups who could post in this thread - please do if you have a local meetup

Please! Would love HN meetup in Berlin.

+1 for Berlin. Moving there in two weeks. Pls email me; my email is in my profile (your profile doesn’t show an email at the time of writing).
