GWWC team members have advocated for a “big tent” effective altruism where everyone who wants to do good effectively should feel that they can be a part of the community—but anecdotally we hear sometimes that people who are primarily interested in giving don’t feel like the broader effective altruism community is the right place for them
Thanks for the comment. I would add that we also found signs related to this in our recent survey on responses to the FTX crisis (e.g. that there was divergence between more longtermist and more neartermist members of the community, with the latter less satisfied and more concerned in various ways).
We’ll be discussing these issues in more detail in our forthcoming post about community satisfaction, retention and mental health.
