I think the consensus is generally that it’s better data analysis but most of the journalistic team is gone. Still plenty of solid stuff. I would say it’s probably competitive with a couple of other similarly lightweight models and teams/individuals. Nate Silver’s kind of gone off the deep end since he least.

How reliable is fivethirtyeight after Nate Silver left? Is there any consensus?

Interesting, thanks. I’ll miss the journalistic aspect.
