    Its really incredible to see Maya here 🙂 Alveus and the whole community have come so far and I am really proud to be a teeny tiny part of it. Can’t wait to see where we all go next.

    I’m absolutely interested in the talk, but for now all I can say is, that’s a very flattering thumbnail.

    I feel like the thumbnail text should be changed. I struggled to read it and I’m a viewer of Alveus. I kept trying to read it as individual sentences. With “The” starting for both.

      I feel like:
      The sanctuary
      that the internet
      built

      Is a lot easier to read
