I think the information you give on Aurea is expired. They’ve closed their form, taken down their initial EA Forum post, and have not responded to emails in months. In short, they seem to have shut down (though there probably still are individuals working on longtermist issues living there). I personally see them as one of the most egregious failures for a longtermist hub from the info I was given. (I don’t give more detail because I wasn’t there and would prefer if they wrote a postmortem themselves). EDIT : I’ve crossed out the before-last sentence as I don’t endorse it anymore and shouldn’t have written in that tone in the first place. I didn’t have first hand information and was unnecessarily hostile. I wish instead that I’d simply expressed my confusion as to why they disappeared.
