This is the one thing technology can’t solve in the discussion - humans are different. I find conferences intensely draining. I love people but I don’t like crowds - I grew up in the remote mountains. But I realize I’m not everyone and I recognize that hybrid events and work places are probably the best way to ensure everyone gets to work and participate in the way they feel most effective. I am glad that the extrovert hegemony has been cracked this year, but I also realize as humans we should figure out how to assemble and collaborate in a way that is most comfortable for everyone, then everyone will get so much more out of the interaction.
