Regarding Gratipay Effective Altruism and .impact and Skillshare Effective Altruism which are networks of EA's exchanging resources, it would be desirable to have them appear in the forum's initial page. In the same way that Lesswrong currently opens a page with many choices on it.
Gratipay is about donating and receiving donations from other EA's. It is a direct channel of donation, which avoids institutional costs of donating through an EA institution, and makes sure that even if only one donor and one project builder want to work on a cause, it still gets done.
Skillshare is about donating time and ability between EA's, offer skills there, and request for help from those who have the skills you need.
and .impact is about projects. Creating projects, reframing projects, looking for other collaborators. It's the EA equivalent of an incubator.
Seems clear to me that all of these are important and distinct part of the EA life, and they should all be one click away from the initial EA page.
