“The Featured Page” by Toby Tremlett🔹

The EA Forum does a lot of things. It's a place to talk about EA community issues, share jobs, updates from organisations, ask for support with new projects, meet people etc… All of this is good, but as we all know, not all good things are equally good.One of the most impactful things the EA Forum does is enable us to have important conversations that could meaningfully shift the focus of funding and talent in the community. As EA grows, I want the Forum to maintain that function, and, indeed, get even better at it. There will be a number of interventions in this direction in the near future. The first is the ‘featured page’, launching today. This is a new homepage for the EA Forum which allows us to highlight the posts we (the EA Forum team and moderators, or, for this experimental period: me) think are likely to be the most impactful. If this works it will a) reward the authors of particularly valuable posts, who will have more readership and have their writing elevated and b) make it easier for readers to find the very best of the EA Forum, however often they turn up.
