I think the current problem with the hangouts is because we pop into an empty room without any indication of whether anyone will pop in. It also feels like a Zoom Call which is kind of awkward when you're the only person there with only your face showing up.
If the UI changes a bit like @cat's room, I think it's gonna get better.
So in my room, there's a feature where I can create events. Maybe that'd be pretty cool to have every once in a while to have scheduled coworking sessions where we know that at least other people will be there.

We actually have on WIP! wip.co/meetups – you can create a "meetup" with the event type of "hangout"
I should clarify this in the UI :D
