@fasterthanlime Then there's the podcast meeting. The "podcast meeting" is when you do that, but everyone's cam is off. Best kind of meeting.

@fasterthanlime This is probably why folks think that sending AI avatars to meetings is a good idea: https://laserdisc.party/@radicalrobit/112554770832097332

Though as a few folks mention, sometimes you actually do want to be at a meeting just for awareness/listening, not everyone has to have something to say but can still derive value from a meeting.

Not saying that's the case here, there are definitely some I've been to where my time would have been better spent just taking a walk and stretching my legs.

@unlambda I’m definitely on team “why is this not an email”

@fasterthanlime what if I don't like to speak in meetings? Not everyone is social. Should I be excluded from joining?

You can extract a lot of information from listening, and a post meeting report will likely miss important information.

I prefer to wait until there is something important to say, and that may not happen every meeting.

@fasterthanlime sorry for my ignorance. I have not been made aware of this. Also, I have no clue what you are referring to.

Was it one of those "only two people actually talk" style or "this is just a lecture" style?

Everyday I have a 15 mins meeting where I don't have anything to say, but I'm here so other developers don't lie to my project manager xD
