Discussion on: How and why do you attend conference?

I have YouTube, which essentially gives me tech talks for free.

Conferences are low value to effort relative to that.

Once every blue moon you might spot me at a meetup trying awkwardly to be social.

Agree that more talks are available for free on YouTube but identifying which one's are coming from people who have tried what they speak and people who plagarize content is difficult. If a conference encourages these Learning,
Inspiration,Sharing,TeamDevelopment,Empowering and finally Networking (LISTEN) at an affordable level , I will be attending them.
