I haven’t visited CEELAR and I don’t know how impactful it has been, but one thing I’ve always admired about you via your work on this project is your grit and agency. When you thought it was a good idea back in 2018, you went ahead and bought the place. When you needed funding, you asked and wrote a lot about what was needed. You clearly care a lot about this project, and that really shows. I hope your successor will too.
I’m reminded of Lizka’s Invisible Impact post. It’s easy to spot flaws in projects that actually materialise but hard/impossible to criticise the absence of projects that never materialised. I get the sense you aren’t error adverse, and you go out and try things. I think more people in the community should try things like CEELAR and be more like you in this regard.
