  Totally lost their way as they commodified and expanded so quickly. Truly great, unique insights are worth keeping small and waiting for. All the ted x and mini Ted x and micro teds etc. just water the brand and impact down.

  I went to one in 2015 and cried, multiple times. By 2020 I couldn’t even stand to watch them online as everyone was trying to give the next great Ted talk instead of Ted picking the most impactful. They also got into echo chamber/preaching to the choir territory as it became too rote.
