Although I really like the content and the social interactions FOSDEM brought me today, I do see the scale of the event as a downside. It is really, really crowded. Not my cup of tea normally.
This is what I like about events like Hacker Hotel and EuroBSD con: good content and talks, but smaller scale events.

@systeemkabouter@exquisite.social Yeah, it's really hard to attend anything other than the hallway track at FOSDEM.

@systeemkabouter@exquisite.social It was just like this 10 years ago too. The downside of being free to attend *and* having an immensely diverse set of topics. On the upside, it's free, unlike many events that run like a few hundred euros a pop... :/
