Didn't forget. Just don't think it makes sense for these things to try and do both jobs. Slides that work as documents are bad presentations. Slides that work as presentations are useless documents. Even Slideshare's own description of itself isn't "for people that missed the original presentation here's your missing thing".

Its: "Slideshare is the presentation-sharing platform for anyone looking for slide inspiration, to showcase their knowledge, or to build on their own ideas."

So for people to: 1) get inspired building their own deck? 2) "Showcase knowledge" whatever that really means. 3) "Build on their own ideas" => get a bullet point or graph you could use?

No one is learning how to do anything from Slideshare because you missed a presentation. Instead, you're coming to this place to read blogs and actual long form content or watching youtube videos.

You want a backdrop to your speech. I want to be able to understand what message you presented when all I have is your scenery.
