The reason for this massive success is probably a post on news-ycombinator-com in May of 2024 and after the initial rise of viewers the algorithm took over and it became a self perpetuating thing. When there's enough interest, we might dig in the statistics to see if our theory is correct.

If you're thinking of going to why2025.org, the recurring Dutch hacker camp (@why2025camp), please sign up for one (or more!) volunteering shifts.

We would really appreciate it if you signed up for one of our AV shifts. Producing these videos takes a lot of effort from our volunteers and we can never have too many shifts assigned to a volunteer ahead of time.
