It had 2 upvotes (one of them from me) when I typed the above, despite having been posted for most of the time it has currently been up and having attracted many comments. Low traffic wasn't the problem; I'd been wondering if it was because folks disagreed with the poster about where to donate, or what.

Nothing strange about it. My last Discussion post has a net of 5 upvotes (1/2 this) - and 57 comments (~3x more), very few of which point to any issue in the linked material which I had written.
