I know some might say I shouldn't be surprised, but I am genuinely disappointed #RustConf2025 is dropping the mask requirement this year: https://rustconf.com/health-safety/.

Masks are now merely 'recommended' which I feel is practically meaningless. I know we're all tired of them (I am, too). But, given the risk of #covid and other airborne illnesses this year isn't significantly different than last year, "we're all tired of this" doesn't feel to me like a strong reason to drop what I feel like is a relatively minor inconvenience that can help protect everyone who attends.

I do appreciate how thoroughly they laid out the section on ventilation, though.
