@Stephanie, and all others who are interested in this program:
I'm confused by the eligibility criteria for this granting program. You've laid it out above, Steph, and the following is from the CEO recap on April 28th, addressing the fund:
"To start, we’re inviting the longest-standing members of our community—which typically means they’ve had Superhost status for four or more years. We’re also comparing these hosts’ earnings from this year and last year to make sure we’re inviting hosts who’ve been most impacted by the current crisis."
Yet, the host who posted in this thread: https://community.withairbnb.com/t5/Help/Did-anyone-else-get-the-Super-host-relief-fund-invite-but-d...
who, while he certainly has been a host for a long time, (and in this instance, missed the invite) appears to have not hosted guests since June of 2018, and July of 2017 for his respective listings. I'm unable to reconcile how Covid-19 might have affected his earnings year over year, when he doesn't appear to have had any. I realize it's possible that guests he may have had guests in the interim that may have neglected to leave a review, but it seems unlikely that all guests for both properties, for a period of 2 and 3 years wouldn't have left one.
Is it possible that the algo that is finding eligible hosts and sending invitations has issues?
Is that perhaps why the program has been so delayed?
Or, has the criteria been changed again?

PS - on another (and far less important) note, Steph, can you tell me why my superhost badge has disappeared from my profile here?
