"The conference choice of Hilary Parker as keynote speaker, seemingly b/c of her notoriety as podcaster, was highly questionable. If the purpose was to provide entertainment from mindless predictions, then job well done!"

The entertainment and amazing informative insights from the Hilary Parker.

"useR was a fantastic way to interact with like-minded individuals across the R community"

Event catering was amazing. Selection of presentations was great. Super variance of keynote speeches as well - liked the format.

"Nice vibe overall."

Having the coffee space next to the 2 main rooms and booth was certainly a good choice to facilitate discussions. My last useR was in 2019 in Toulouse and I think everyone was happy to meet in person again.

    I have learned a lot of state-of-the-art techniques; the meeting is well-organized.
    What did you like best about the event?
    The new stuff about R programming, some of those I have never heard before, some of them I want to learn, but no chance. These sessions cover a wide range of topics, from the latest packages and tools to innovative uses of R in various industries.
    What could the organizers do to improve the event?
    Maybe just upload all the information, slides for review, and there is some problem with the online session. There was no notification for me. Some of the speak were too long for me.

    I enjoyed a lot the conference, and the keynotes were very interesting specially the one from Maëlle and Hilary
    What did you like best about the event?
    It was a great opportunity to connect with others from the R community. Also, we have a lot of interesting topics, and I discovered new handy packages.
    What could the organizers do to improve the event?
    For next time, it would be good to have desks for the workshops. Also, more space for the workshop rooms will be nice to have or control a bit better the registration. It'd be also nice to have a chat during the conference, for instance Discord, Mattermost, or Slack to improve communication during the conference.

    What could the organizers do to improve the event?
    Bigger "small rooms". Except the 3 main rooms, other rooms were too small. I would also have expected to have a pointer to remotely change slides (second main room did not have one). That wasn't convenient as I had to stay close to the computer to change the slides.

    useR was a fantastic way to interact with like-minded individuals across the R community
    What did you like best about the event?
    Event catering was amazing. Selection of presentations was great. Super variance of keynote speeches as well - liked the format.
    What could the organizers do to improve the event?
    For future tutorials, you really need to provide charging infrastructure. For the presentations, the overflow rooms were a bit meh.

    What did you like best about the event?
    The entertainment and amazing informative insights from the Hilary Parker.
    What could the organizers do to improve the event?
    Have Roger Peng on a panel with Hilary Parker, who is the perfect foil for Hilary's entertaining predictions and ridiculous insights into the intersection of data science and artificial intelligence.
