Hello! I'm Toby. I'm Content Manager at CEA. I work with the Online Team to make sure the Forum is a great place to discuss doing the most good we can. You'll see me posting a lot, authoring the EA Newsletter and curating Forum Digests, making moderator comments and decisions, and more.
Before working at CEA, I studied Philosophy at the University of Warwick, and worked for a couple of years on a range of writing and editing projects within the EA space. Recently I helped run the Amplify Creative Grants program, to encourage more impactful podcasting and YouTube projects. You can find a bit of my own creative output on my blog, and my podcast feed.
Reach out to me if you're worried about your first post, want to double check Forum norms, or are confused or curious about anything relating to the EA Forum.
Hey Antony!
Do you know about High Impact Engineers? Also, welcome to the Forum! I'm here if you have any questions,
Toby (Content Manager for the EA Forum)
For those among us who want to get straight back to business - I've tagged (I think) all the april fools posts, so you can now filter them out of your frontpage if you prefer by adding the "April Fools' Day" tag under the "Customize feed" button at the top of the frontpage, and changing the filter to hidden.
Thanks for making this thread!
So much to be grateful for. One thing that often brings me joy is the fantastic content that people write for the Forum, even when it benefits the community far more than it benefits them. There are definitely personal gains to be had by writing on the Forum, but a lot of great work is done from a position of altruism as well. I get a lot of job satisfaction from seeing great discussion on the Forum, whether it's during an event or just a random week. Maybe this is a bit too generic - but I think the quantity of great content on this Forum is kind of ridiculous when you zoom out a bit, and I won't stop being grateful for it (and looking the gifthorse straight in the mouth by trying to get more).
SummaryBotV2 didn't seem to get more agree reacts than V1, so I'm shutting it down. Apologies for any inconvenience.
