The idea doesn't seem to be very popular though.

I wonder why. There's tons of subjects where I feel like I could gain utility just from chatting with other rationalists about them. I might go to a meetup soon, but hanging out with a bunch of strangers much older than me is something I don't do that often.

It is likely that there would be people within a few years from your age at your local meetup (especially if it is a bigger one). And I thought you were all about minimizing your identity? Seems like you don't want to go to a meetup because you are not the kind of dude to hang out with a bunch of strangers much older than you.
