In SF Bay area, and a few other cities:
https://lu.ma/ and https://partiful.com/ are the most common (for new tech events) right now. Discovery isn't great, but it's what everyone is using.
Luma is rolling out more discovery features, and I search twitter for "lu.ma San Francisco" to find other events sometimes.
Nothing that covers the feature set of Meetup though, but much better to use.

These seem to be closer to Eventbrite competitors, for the new cool generation
