+Feeback was that media.ccc.de was very well received and people appreciated
+having a privacy-friendly open source platform alternative for following the
+talks. One suggestion to convert XDC to a hybrid conference, because of carbon
+footprint and such. A few complaints about the schedule but I think we did our
+best, since moving the schedule around would have been far too difficult.
