Is the Reddit handled? I can do that… and/or Hacker News
Tostal, could you do reddit? Thanks! My karma is quite low, so the chances it’ll pop out are low.
@mikesol I can also do the Reddit ones, I’ve got plenty of karma from posting on the Haskell subreddit. Also, do you mind editing your original post to put these links up at the top so they’re easy to see right away?
Ok, you can duke it out with toastal for who posts. Again apologies for not realizing about this karma thing before!
I highly doubt either cares about Reddit karma that much … I can do r/elm though
Once reddit is live please post it here and I’ll upvote with my very meager karma
I’ll post to the Haskell subreddit, but would you mind doing the others?
Ok, so to summarize, @thomashoneyman will do Haskell, @toastal will do elm & PureScript.
I don’t think individuals care about (reddit) karma, but it looks like reddit’s algos do when deciding whether or not to send push notifications.
I’m adding the shareable links back over to the announcement post:
For volunteers, I think that closes out the “intensive” period. The next two hours will be the monitoring-and-responding period. It’s possible that nothing comes in, but if there are any issues (a post needs to be taken down, the survey has some grave error that we didn’t flag in advance, a newcomer needs guidance, etc) let’s keep our .
@thomashoneyman , we have a high bounce rate (around 95%) - I’m wondering if it may be the language thing? If so, I can make the default English. This will make Chinese and Japanese harder to find but may improve completion? I say this as a direct contradiction to my previous assumption, but the numbers don’t lie and it’s tough to know what’s up but it’s worth experimenting?
Also, when I say “high”, take it with a grain of salt - it could in fact be entirely normal, but it just feels high on a gut-check level.
Hard to say without knowing the typical bounce rate for a survey like this. I suspect we’ll have an extremely high bounce rate – easy to click the survey link, hard to fill it out right now. I, for example, have opened the survey twice but I won’t fill it out until later today.
The “helpers” portion of the survey is now officially over. Thanks to all that helped out!!
fwiw I often open these kinds of things in a tab and come back to them when I have time, which most likely counted as a bounce even though I did complete it later
I also accidentally closed my tab while trying to close my other tabs looking at the linked GitHub issues so I had to start over–probably counting as a bounce. I liked seeing tangible issues though.
