ALT 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 :-)"
