Quick question: why not write on the EA Forum? I am not convinced by “the most valuable conversations on field building are happening when people share their hot takes at conferences, retreats, or between staff members of fieldbuilding orgs that are just a bit too edgy to write up for the EA forum”. Is it just a better “writer experience”?
To be clear, I am interested enough in your views that I went to Substack and subscribed to your newsletter! It seems to me that for your topics, there are much stronger reasons to stay on the forum than for leaving it: I suppose you’ll get more readers; it will be more convenient for said readers; there’s a good comments system; the audio transcription; there are previous of within-forum links; and probably other important things I’m forgetting.
If you want people to take your writings less seriously, and to be able to write without spending hours reviewing your texts, maybe you could use the “quick takes”?
(super interested to hear what was in favor of Substack! :) )
Interesting topic ideas, thanks in advance Gergő!
