joined end of november

heard of site for a while - forget how, maybe gaming, smash or destiny, but no strong tie to either

few friends started at the same time

friends get bored very quickly - AI, crypto, elon, EA

He decided instead of quitting to just use his mana to “shit post”

Frustration of seeing boring questions - could not break through algorithm, made 500 questions yes no and got no traction

really likes YES /NO feels a shame that multichoioce is so OP and seems prioritised

every success being outsider and breaking culture eg. [ADD RESPONSE] - maybe older creators would not do because breaks culture but he didn’t care

Getting opinions is fun

Cost changed - do poll type markets less

What happened to friends?

• Couple friends come back to support Strutheo and one-piece explained
• Other friends who are 30s young working professions got bored quickly, think Manifold as a company is a joke and Strutheo is just taking money from a burning ship, not interested in ever coming back, thinks EA is a joke
• Some success showing it to his Dad, support me as a partner by trading, started betting in some politics stuff
• His Dad seemed to like the dashboards
• Older people he showed it to like the idea of politics, but no reason to check the Manifold, they just want to read about it eg. Nate Silver
• Expanded out of tech stuff
