I've been thinking of how to build on the #LessWrongMoreNice idea while taking some criticisms into account, and thought about something that seems to only have upsides - namely, creating a Gratitude thread. It would make the overall tone of LW more positive, without impeding the honest criticism. There's a lot of research showing that expressing gratitude improves mental and physical health. Thoughts?
Oy, the gratitude thread is getting some deterioration into discussions of Intentional Insights. Perhaps I shouldn't be the one to post it next time, as some people have strong negative triggering about the outreach I do.
My main goal is not to get karma/brownie points for the success of this project, but to have the project succeed and help make LW a nicer place.
So what are thoughts about whether I should be the one to post it next time?
Definitely not. It looked seriously awkward to me.
