Excluding big new features, what are the most impactful ways we can improve the core Manifold platform. Specifc suggestions will be prefered over vague-but-correct advice.
add widgets for the mobile app so that you can view info about your bets and other things from your home screen.
@SG One Idea could be to get monthly mana rewards like how there are daily and weekly. This would make people more likely to stay on the site if they are low on mana and don't want to spend money to get more. Then there could be an option to pay to get more mana monthly the cost would be slightly lower than the cost to buy it all at once from the store. This would have appeal for 2 reasons, One if you made a bad decision and lost a huge amount you would know that you would be getting more later, the second is if the cost is lower then buying it all at once, If people were losing activity on the site they would know that they paid for something (the monthly mana) and its going to waste so then they are more likely to regain activity.
I find it hard to browse for markets I'm interested in. I feel like I'm stuck in some kind of gravity well and would like to have more ability to know what markets are out there.
For example, I would LOVE a "take me to a random market" button.
I would also like to be able to hide topics. There are times in life where I will have a more harmonious time if I don't accidentally spend all day looking at political markets and then telling my girlfriend what they say. This makes her sad.
I feel depressed when I realize how much time I've wasted on Manifold due to addiction. It would be beneficial to implement a feature allowing users to temporarily freeze their accounts, with the option to set a specific reactivation date. This would prevent users from impulsively deleting their accounts, which is less advantageous for Manifold than a temporary suspension.
