Rank a Day

This is fun. A couple of things: It's a bit confusing because I wasn't ranking anything, I was voting for things. I thought I was going to rank the three things I selected, for…

I really like the general idea. I’m constantly doing this solo or with friends so good to see what others think. The long lists are a difficult UX, not sure how you completely…

Oh, I like this!

I was about to say the same thing. A trillion options is just unmanageable. One (other) solution is to create a tiny algorithm that lets the user choose the best one compared to…

> simple, fun task every day Honestly, comparing two options is much more fun than scrolling through a massive list and trying to figure out what your favourite item is

I was just coming here to ask if it could be alphabetical because the list is so long I can't find anything :) Maybe do Z-A instead? There's also so many fruits I've never heard…

There's a lot of possible choices presented to the user, some of them totally out there like 'Ximenia'. Maybe there should be fewer choices, or can group them by what the author…

I noticed that Apple and Banana rank in the top two. While clearly they are very familiar fruit to your audience, they are also near the beginning of the alphabet. I wonder if…

Try to shuffle the order of options to avoid bias (you can see apple and banana at top, both also in the beginning of the alphabet)

A to Z but reversed 50% of the time is the way to go to avoid bias while still being sorted one way or another

The problem is it assumes perfect knowledge of all the options. People should be able to remove the influence of their ranking for fruits they are not familiar with.

Funny. The question asks "what is the best fruit?" - but the answers only show you what the most widely available fruits are. Anything that's lesser known or more expensive to…

Would probably be better to show X and Y and let people select which is better (or skip), and compute an ELO score. A list with hundreds of items isn't great

It might be fun if you allowed people to submit reasons or categories that make their choice the best. Today is "best fruit". What if I could submit the subcategory "best as a…

I changed it so they are ordered randomly now. Let see if that makes a difference. Having them in alphabetical does make it easier to find what you want but there is a search.…

I'm interested what are the logistics of adding new topics for such "random thing every day" sites. I would guess that you maybe have a queue with topics for the next few days…

This list of fruits includes avocados, but not olives - both are arguably fruits. There are more: https://www.treehugger.com/vegetables-are-actually-fruits-4857900

Sorry I did exclude those fruits which people typically mistake as vegetables like tomatoes. Otherwise the list would have been too long.
