Last time it ended a few external copycats cropped up. They all died pretty quick. It being temporary is part of the charm.

Yeah, while for some the new 2022's doesnt compare to 2017's, this one definitely has a lot of its own charm, and is a really nice way to showcase how different the internet has changed in just 5 years. Were it be a semi constant event, I think it being every 5 years is a good sweet spot. Not often enough to bore and is also enough time to have new communities and events flourish inbetween each.
