I've had time to reflect on my experience at #scale21x and my takeaway is: I sincerely miss being "plugged in" to the #Linux community.
Tracking the amazing developments. Speaking personally to maintainers. Watching the joy as people discover all the cool corners of a distro they're trying for the 1st time. Having a platform like Forbes and YouTube to broadly share this stuff.
At SCaLE many people told me they miss @Linux4Everyone. I miss it too.
Just feeling conflicted and reflective today.
