Thanks a lot for publishing this report, it’s great to see that so much careful thought has gone into your decision.
I want to highlight that giving to the donor lottery is a highly effective way to donate even if you don’t publish such a report. I’ve heard people say that they were hesitant to give to the donor lottery because they didn’t want to be obliged to publish articles like these. Just like some people choose to report publicly about their ordinary donations and others don’t, it’s fine if some report about their donor lottery decision and others don’t. Your decision whether to participate in the donor lottery doesn’t affect the probability that someone else will win and publish a report.
