FOSDEM and Debconf also use matrix/element.io, XDC2020 used jitsi plus IRC plus a jitsi youtube live plugin. if you choose not to use google forms, you can ask someone to enter the responses for you, i am happy to do that, please email me directly. l. --- crowd-funded eco-conscious hardware: https://www.crowdsupply.com/eoma68
