david_reinstein comments on ImpactMatters was acquired by CharityNavigator; but it doesn’t seem to have been incorporated, presented, or used in a great way. (Update/​boost)

David Moss:

There was some discussion of the original acquisition here.

Historically, Charity Navigator has been extremely hostile to effective altruism, as you probably know, so perhaps this isn’t surprising

My response

Thank you, I had not seen Luke Freeman @givingwhatwecan’s earlier post

That 2013 opinion piece/​hit job is shocking. But that was 9 years ago or so.

I doubt CN would have acquired IM just to bury it; there might be some room for positive suasion here.
