My main problems were with the memes.

Seriously, nothing against a little humor in your slides. But making every seconds slide a meme reference gets annoying pretty fast :)

It almost felt like the memes were for obfuscation, because they certainly had that effect on me. I'd say if this was a presentation, it would be neither informative nor professional.

A well-placed meme for humour can be good, I agree.

Agreed, the slides were unreadable. A simple text document would have sufficed...

Not only that, but it's the original "open" format.

Slides, in general, aren't very useful without the accompanying talk.

And this didn't even have a talk.
