I miss it, kinda. I think it was uniquely poised to take advantage of lockdown, and there was some great stuff broadcast - I particularly remember watching a kalimba concert. But we all got tired of lockdown and online meetings and that's where it floundered.

I also STR that at least some of the feeds weren't viewable after the event ended (don't know if it was all of them or not). Which meant that it wasn't really a format for short videos (because people need time to find them), so they were more effort to set up and run, and for at least the ones that weren't viewable afterward, there was nothing you could point to afterward and say "I made that!"

I think if they'd kept it around, it could've found it's niche, but at the time I didn't really miss it when it went.
