I share this feeling. I feel like EA has trended in the direction of some other groups I’ve dealt with where the personalities and interpersonal issues of a small number of people at the top come to be overly dominant.
I’ve also had my faith in the movement fractured a bit by seeing how much of how things were run seems to be based on friends of friends networks. I had naively assumed they were doing the kind of due diligence and institutional division of power that other charitable organisations do.
A lot of this isn’t a particular specific set of issues, but its a general sense of ones estimates of people being shifted downward
