Completely opposite for me, and I bet other introverts or people with social anxiety/low social mana.
- Workaccount2 6y agoSmall talk and the like is tiring, but getting to talk about your pet project with others who grasp it's depth is a rare and exciting thing, and there is no denying that in person communication flows the best.
- 0xffff2 6y agoSpeak for yourself. I'm not so much an introvert as a near-total loner. I find in-person conferences incredibly interesting and valuable for the ability to spend a week nerding out on technical topics with new people. Online conferences do absolutely nothing for me.
