I run several meetups since 2013 and understand the consequences of charging attendees. The values I demonstrate is that I provide free education to attendees in tech. Back in 2014 I tried charging a tiny fee and people stopped showing up as most aren't sure if they are able to make it until last minute, and sometimes other meetups pop up that is more important to them.
Before I look at alternative options or jump to solutions, it would be appropriate to wait to see what meetup plans to do based on customer reaction. Maybe they will make an intellectual decision not to move forward with the new fees.
That's my thoughts.
