Why I Left iNaturalist
After almost 18 years, I left iNaturalist, the product and organization I helped create. I left because I donβt believe the current Leadership team is pointing the product in the right direction, and I donβt think they are managing their talented staff in an empathetic or effective way. If youβd like me to continue working on natural history software, support me on Patreon.
