Hm wonder if it would be worth setting up an anonymous (including to me) box for criticisms or praise of EA as a minor public service. Like if for some reason people want tetraspace to post it in quotes instead of posting them themselves

"told us in private that they were concerned that any critique of central figures in EA would result in an inability to secure funding from EA sources, such as OpenPhilanthropy" (forum.effectivealtruism.org/po) like my reaction is that this is stupid equilibrium to be in, also I'm not looking for Open Philanthropy funding so though I'm not like high status and don't want to be some sort of community Confessional I could totally do anything at all about this maybe

Similar to what I was imagining, though I'd post them in a more linkable-to place so you could tell your friends to fix specific issues

Also related, though the authors chose who to ask and who they were asking wasn't anonymous to them
