Does anyone else miss the old conference ecosystem? [D]

Does anyone else miss when conferences like BMVC, ACCV, FG, ICIP, and ICASSP had much bigger communities?
FG was the place for face analysis, ICASSP for signal processing, and BMVC/ACCV regularly featured strong papers.
Now it feels like everything is concentrated into a handful of flagship conferences. With exploding submission numbers, limited capacity, and inconsistent reviews, I wonder how many good papers end up as non-archival submissions, arXiv-only, or never get shared at all.
I also miss the focused communities. Is it just nostalgia, or has the research ecosystem become too concentrated?
