I guess I don’t interpret those bullets as “arguing against organising simple events” but rather “put your effort into supporting more engaged people” and that could even be consistent with running simple events, since it means less time on broad outreach compared to e.g. a high-effort welcoming event.
I agree with the first part of your last sentence (the blend), I don’t know how EA groups spend their time.
Hmm, yeah, but by arguing for “put your effort into supporting more engaged people” you’re effectively arguing against “relatively large events that require relatively shallow engagement”. I think that’s the mistake. I think it should be an even blend of the two.
Thanks, that makes sense.
