I would say it depends on the community and the platform you are using to host. Can you facilitate small side conversations (chat or voice/video)? Can you remove anonymity?

I'm comfortable with in person or remote, but I've been both an attendee and an organizer. If folks don't do a lot of video or voice meetings it may be awkward for them and harder to get them to engage.

Yep we tried asking questions in the meetup on voice and send in questions through chat and have them addressed at the end during Q&A. But agreed it would be challenging for those who do not do voice and video meeting.
