Comment on Show HN: I built a 2-min quiz that shows you how bad you are at estimating

Comments

I’ve taken the quiz but not been compelled to sign up. The site feels manipulative, e.g., the “show me all the questions” link is tiny and hidden between two larger boxes, and even then it only shows 2 questions with a signup CTA. Maybe that’s best practice growth hacking these days, but to me it’s a manipulative turnoff. If you’d given me all the questions and answers simply then I would signed up for more, especially with the discount code. Otherwise, how am I supposed to even know what I’m signup up for? Every interaction I’ve had with the site so far is a sales attempt, so mostly I expect more of those.

That's honest feedback, I appreciate it. The post quiz shouldn't feel like a sales funnel. I'll clean that up. Working on it!
