The FTX collapse took place in November 2022. Among other things, this resulted in a lot of negative media attention on EA.
It’s also worth noting that this immediately followed a large (very positive, on the whole) media campaign around Will MacAskill’s book What We Owe the Future in summer 2022, which I imagine caused much of the growth earlier that year.
Seems like this could be a good resource!
Minor note is that the number of forum users peaked in Nov. 2022 and has been declining since.
What happened in 2022, out of interest? Anyone know?
