Hi Dan,
Thanks for your note. :)
On the Research end, Dario is still a big supporter of the efforts
around research to help us better understand harassment (as you
noticed in our commitments to the annual plan) and with Ellery's
departure, I've been helping him a bit to make sure we can move
forward on this front. More specifically, and while we're continuing
the research with Nithum and Lucas who were Ellery's collaborators on
the Detox project, we recently initiated
https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Research:Study_of_harassment
_and_its_impact
with Cristian and Yiqing from Cornell University. We are very excited
about this new collaboration as Cristian has years of experience in
spaces that are very relevant to the socio-technical problems related
to harassment. I think you will enjoy reading that page which signal
the early directions of the research.
The whole harassment research team meets every 2 weeks, if you're
curious what's going on on this front and on our end and you want to
listen in, please ping me. And, thank you for the offer to help. We
may take you up on that. :)
Best,
Leila

part of the Community
Health initiative. They are doing their first quarterly check in this
quarter so expect some updates then. Ping me offlist if you want more

I just wanted to point this out and offer to help if I can be of use.
