yeah been complaining about this for a while. I’m not sure exactly when things started to fall apart, but it’s been in about the last year. the quality of discussion there has fallen off a cliff because it now seems to be full of folks unfamiliar with the basics of rationality or even ea thought. ea has always not been exactly rationality, but historically there was enough overlap to make eaf a cool place. now it’s full of people who don’t share a common desire to understand the world.
(obviously still good folks on the forum, just enough others to make it less fun and productive to post there)
