TIL I learned the difference between TED and TEDx.

TEDx events are independently organized TED-like conferences that operate under a free license granted by TED. While they follow the general principles of TED, TEDx events are planned and coordinated by volunteers at the local level, aiming to bring the TED experience to a broader audience.

I also don’t understand it. If the topic is interesting and important enough, write an article about it, happy to read it. No need to add an unnecessary layer of a human presenting it - if that is needed for anybody to listen, then the topic is not worth our time

    People don't read

    I mean, I would also prefer it..I don't want a 10 minute 1 second video driven by a 14 year old YouTube algorithm change explaining which bolt to loosen, but here we are. People don't read.
