started adding a Q&A slide instead of doing the classic hand raising at the end and it’s honestly so much better for bigger groups. People who’d never raise their hand in person actually type stuff out. Anyone else running these live, how do you deal with it when a bunch of questions come in at once

audience can upvote each other’s questions so the ones people actually care about float to the top, way easier to just answer the top few instead of scrolling through everything randomly

I like that people can post without their name showing, gets way more honest/blunt questions out of a room that’s usually too shy to say anything out loud

for bigger sessions I just leave the Q&A slide open in the background the whole time instead of pulling it up only at the end, questions trickle in while I’m still presenting and I grab a few during natural pauses

I only timebox about 10 minutes if there are a lot of questions, first come first serve, the rest unanswered questions I tell everyone that I will respond later (but not live)
