I have not. There’s no particular reason why, other than I tend to view myself as a noncentral EA and so hang out more in LW and ACX spaces. I think a lot of what I write for rationalist meetups would apply straightforwardly to EA meetups.
This may be a silly question, but- how does cross posting usually work? I have a bit of a preference to stick my handle or name on things I write, so maybe I should make an account over on EA forum. It sounds like you spend more time over there; are there norms on EA forum around say, pseudonyms and real names, or being a certain amount aligned with EA?

agreed. this sort of thing feels completely missing from the EA Groups Resources Centre, and i’d guess it would be a big/important contribution.

iirc, when you’re publishing a post on {LessWrong, the EA forum}, one of the many settings at the bottom is “Cross-Post to {the EA forum, LessWrong},” or something along those lines. there’s some karma requirement for both the EA forum and for LW — if you don’t meet the karma requirement for one, you might need to manually cross-post until you have enough karma.

re: pseudonyms: though there’s a general, mild preference for post authors to use their real names, using a pseudonym is perfectly fine — and many do (example).
re: alignment: you don’t need to be fully on-board with EA to post on the forum (and manyaren’t), but the content of your post should at least relate to EA.
This is great! Have you cross-posted this to the EA Forum? If not, may I?

for other questions regarding the norms on the EA forum, here’s a guide to the norms on the EA forum. (on that guide, they have a section on “rules for pseudonymous and multiple accounts” and “privacy and pseudonymity.”)
*i’ll edit & delete this part later, but: i’ll get back to you over email in a bit! caught up with other stuff, and getting to things one at a time :)
