As we wrap up May, we should take time to reflect on what things we accomplished (individually, and as a team) that we're especially proud of! This both gives us cause to celebrate, and also lets us double down on processes and ideas that are working~ Mostly, this market is for the Manifold team; don't expect the probabilities, etc to mean much other than like a subjective vote on how much you agree with a particular statement, or how much you want to discuss it. I'll probably resolve to N/A or MKT or the top 5 or the ones we end up discussing in our team meeting. Not sure yet.

Don't forget to have your retro :)
Mostly because Manifold is a really good fit with her personal style of engaging followers on Twitter Hopeful for the future, we'll be able to get additional creators on board.
Only contacted one person (Aella) and it turned it to be super good! Largest individual driver of traffic!
[S] New homepage led to a increase in all of our numbers (DAU, activation rate, trades)
[J] Their service is good I guess? (their API is not that good) [mqp] search quality isn't great... [J] Forcing it to sort in the order that we provide. [mqp] that will do [A] Should maybe have a "relevance" search
[mqp] better than EA bahamas [i] you weren't there!
[i] we don't even remember, but it was bad
@Austin Hurrah!
[I] Much better than just having a wall of comments
[i] Free response replies get 2 layers deep; [A] prefers a single layer
@Austin especially getting to know everyone on the team better!
We're pretty much all set! And I'm pleased about the Airbnb discount.
We're still shipping pretty meaningful stuff all the time! Shoutout to @mqp for behind-the-scenes work to keep our codebase clean and lean, so that the rest of us can focus on new dev work
[David] Like the fact we're willing to publish and then polish
Combination of work from @SirSalty's tireless media presence and @SG's creator program
[D] Quality of followers (of the 80 followers who join) is actually really good. Not bots, very engaged, high followers/clout Sort of continue at the rate, promising, do more collabing, commenting, more general PM stuff Move from Manifold specific, more to longtermist, interest!
