Screenshot from an BlueSky private message with the sender hidden. Text reads: "Hey Tim, just wanted to say congrats again on running the conference. I know how much work these things are behind the scenes and pulling off your first conference is a massive deal, so yeah, congratulations! I really enjoyed the conf and not just because I wasn't jet lagged :-) It ran incredibly smoothly, having the co-working days was great, the food was really good, and the talks were great - not just good talks, but the overall curation was really good. All in all, it was one of the best conferences I've attended - like not just good for a first conference or good for a conference in NZ, but just good, full stop. Hope you're managing to get a little rest and recovery now :-)"
Sometimes, it's okay to read the comments. This came in as a private message yesterday.
If you would like to go hunting for the talk, click through to the live stream recording and then use the chapter markers (high quality recordings are in progress)

Any guesses about which talk is causing this spike?
