538 converts percentages to rough odds, e.g. 43% might be displayed as "3 in 7". It's less precise but somewhat more intuitive to newcomers, and also emphasises that both outcomes are possible.

bought Ṁ10 of YES

If it was added as a display option, I'd give it a try. Even better if it was exact odds(i.e. "3.5:1" = 22%)

I was always for percentages or log-percentages myself, but I've been liking odds more ever since using Manifold.

sold Ṁ88 of NO

I'd actually find that much less intuitive, I like that manifold uses percents and I feel like I'm frequently converting other odds formats into percents to actually understand them:
