This is a nice idea, to talk about and get thinking about these "soft" questions that people often struggle with.

One feedback about the homepage: show a few examples of how people have answered questions, below the prompt. That's more helpful to get us thinking about our own answers, compared to a blank field. (Also, it's not clear what the percentages are meant to represent there. And I'm guessing the number next to the edit icon shows how many people have answered the question already? May need some UI tweaks on these.)




Your guess is close! It is the total numbers, and the green/blue ratio indicate how many people answered the prompt publicly vs privately.

My intention was to show the general comfort level of answering the prompt in public. Looking back, I wonder if I was being too quirky.

I’m thinking the same on needing UI tweaks, I’m planning for major rearrangements.

Thank you for your interest. Please feel free to reach out via the contacts if you’d like an invite.
