Manifold has just launched a new homepage designed to make it easier to browse relevant markets across a variety of categories.

What can we do to improve the design or user experience of the homepage?

I will resolve this market by choosing the most helpful 1-5 answers one week from now, weighted by my subjective sense of helpfulness/impactfulness. I value precise and explicit suggestions ("change the font to X") over more general and vague suggestions, even if correct ("improve the font").

Personally, I prefer manual

Agreed, would be nice to get a couple graphs on the homepage

If you've bet within the last 24 hours, instead of looking at default parameters, look to see if market has moved a significant % since ur last trade on it (compare live prob to prob ur trade moved the prob to).

@LudwigBald FYI u can disable notifications for daily loans in the settings tab on the notification page.

like Tumblr savior

@Yev ah, got it - no problem if it's disqualified then

@AndyMartin That's exactly my point. It's a global feature that affects the entire site, not just the new home page.

@SneakySly +1, ideally once you "hide"/"mark as not interested" a market, it would not show up in any context (home page, search, marking listing page for a group, etc)

@SG What do you all think about this one? Do you like being able to manually arrange groups on the homepage? Or would you prefer it to be automatic?

@Yev It should be something you can do from the homepage, similar to hiding groups.

Also I don't want to have my closed groups (where I'm the owner and the only member) on the home page, but if I unfollow them I won't be able to add markets to them.

IMHO there is an intermediate state of "I'm kinda interested in this, but not enough to take up space on my home page".

@Yev I usually don't scroll far enough to see more than a few groups.

@AndyMartin While it would be a great feature, I'm not sure what it has to do with the new homepage.

@MichaelWheatley You could give it a picture, or display the graph.

Following another user doesn't seem to do anything at the moment. A feed of recent actions from the people you follow could be interesting, e.g.

  • X bought M$50 of YES on this market

  • Y commented on this other market

  • Z followed W

  • etc.

Make the featured market stand out more.

@MichaelWheatley There was some talk about this in the Notion discussion. It sure is nice to look at something other than text occasionally.
