Nicholas Kruus🔸 comments on What posts does the EA Forum appreciate, and what posts does it need more of?

[Nicholas Kruus🔸]

To get the ball rolling on this discussion, I’ll pitch in some trends I’ve noticed (although might be completely wrong about!)

The following seem popular (at least lately):

• Highly detailed and thorough research reports (example)

  • Or summaries of them?

• Personal narratives about things like...

  • Mental health

  • EA commitments (e.g., taking the GWWC pledge)

  • EA community interactions

  • Introductions to EA

  • Intuitions about EA-related philosophies

• Positive posts that...

  • Celebrate progress (example)

  • Express gratitude for EA (example)

  • Praise other posts (example)

• Well-thought-out criticism of EA

• Drama at EA-aligned orgs (e.g., FTX, OpenAI board, Nonlinear)
