Should we apply the same logic to local LW meetup announcements? If not, what is different?
I think we should. Personally, I was put off for years from joining Less Wrong when it split off from Overcoming Bias because everytime I looked the home page was nothing but meetup announcements.
Interesting - I don't remember meetup announcements until a couple of years after the split.
I wasn't an active reader during the split - life had intervened. Indeed, for a while there I incorrectly believed Overcoming Bias had renamed itself Less Wrong following a redesign.
Local Meetup announcements are useful information promoting something we want that appears nowhere else. But I would still support them not being on discussion page if there was another space for them.
Redesigning the article categories would be useful. "Main" and "Discussion" are not enough for the amount and structure of articles we have now.
A possible solution is "Top Articles", "Articles", "Forum" -- the last category for meetups and recurrent topics.
People have complained before about the post list being overwhelmed with meetup announcements.
