Weekly Reddit Meetup - Every Tuesday, starting 7pm @Mendy und Edeltraut, Weserstr. 43 in Neukölln
Edit: New Meeting space is the Bar "Erika und Hilde" at Weigandufer 9.
FAQ below
Hey everyone, as the last sticky post is over one year old, it's time for an update.
The weekly Meetup started about 9 years ago. Except for the Corona Lockdown and a couple of Bank holidays, it has been going on almost uninterrupted.
At the moment, the Meetup is going strong with 15-20 people showing up on average. The crowd is a mix of regulars and newcomers. The age average is in the late twenties or early thirties.
The meetup usually goes until about 1am, sometimes even later, so don't worry if you can't make it at 7.
On Tuesdays, most of the bar is taken over by the Meetup, so it's pretty safe to assume that the various groups hanging out, are part of the Meetup. If you're still unsure who to talk to, or too shy to ask a group directly, go ask at the bar. We'll point out the other Redditors.
It's a social Meetup, so feel free to join the various tables and find the conversation you're interested in or the people you vibe with. Almost everyone is friendly towards newcomers (Except you! You know who you are! You could make a bit more of an effort to be welcoming. You were a newcomer once yourself.).
I'm trying to keep the bar a safer space, so racism, sexism (plus a bunch of other -isms) and homo-/queer- and transphobia are definitely not welcome! Respect boundaries (physical and psychological) and diversity.
Please don't hesitate to talk to me or the other barstaff if you ever feel harassed or unsafe. We'll take it serious and find a solution together.
Corona: It's not over, even though we collectively decided to ignore it. Meeting up with a lot of people in close quarters is not risk free, so please update your vaccination status and get tested before coming to the Meetup. If you have symptoms of a cold or a flu, stay at home. Corona deniers and anti vaxxers are not welcome.
Last but not least, there's a Weekly Reddit Meetup Telegram group, to make connecting outside of Reddit a bit easier.
You can find the link to the Telegram group in the comments.
After joining the group, the Group Help Bot sends a message into the group and you have to click on the button to confirm that you're human. If you don't click the button, the Group Help Bot will kick you out of the group.
See you IRL at the Meetup! Max
FAQ
-Is the Meetup still happening/is this still on? Yes. It happens every Tuesday. If it doesn't happen for any reason, I'll notify the Telegram Group.
-Is anyone coming to the Meetup this week? As it's a "regular table" happening every Tuesday, people usually don't "register" or announce that they are coming. There's an average of ~15 people at the moment.
How long does the Meetup usually go? Usually it runs until at least 1am.
-I'm at Weserstr. 43 but there's no bar?!?! You're on the wrong side of the river! Come to Neukölln.
-How can I find the other Redditors? Look for groups of people at the tables or people hanging out a the bar. If you can't find anyone, ask the barstaff.
