Hello! I am the Affective Altruist, and I am building a little dating website for EAs. I’m starting off with WordPress to keep it simple. Consider this a fun side project of mine, and friendly competitor to reciprocity.io. ^_^
Is anyone interested? What simple features would you want from such a site? Should I make a top-level question asking this?
My general advice for people building projects that require network effects is to think about how to 100% of a small market before you try to tackle the entire market. Peter Thiel has written about this dynamic in Zero to One. Can you get all EAs in your city/region perhaps?
Yeah, I’ve read in another book, the Cold Start Problem by Andrew Chen, that to form an atomic network you should think even more specific than you normally would. I was considering EA as kinda niche but it would make sense that people generally want to date others constrained by location. Though early adopters might care a bit less if they’re willing to travel or have online relationships?
