Do people meet IRL in the Bay Area?

Hi, i am in San Francisco for the week from NYC and trying to meet some people in IRL. I was suggested using meetup.com and Saturday apps but hardly see anything of interest(start ups/tech) there in person. The activity seems much lower than in NYC, where we have multiple such events every week on a regular basis. Are there any other places to find like minded people to meet in person or Bay Area is still to get back to normal IRL stuff?
