No one’s in charge of posting them, so it’s probably just a case of “no one thought to post one”. There are multiple possible reasons why that happens to rationality diaries and not to the open thread, but I don’t think most of them imply that the rationality diaries are pointless or anything.
The latest post in that old one was on the 20th, so people are getting enough use out of them that continuing to have them posted regularly is worthwhile—I thought about it, but wondered about whether there were any rules about it, started thinking about posting in the open thread asking whether there was anything I’d have to do first, and then didn’t bother to go to that effort.
What happened to the rationality diaries? It’s been a month since the last one officially ended.

Feel free to create one. You may do so even for your own diary entry.
