Community

See how other members are doing.

Members who join share a few anonymous signals and see figures from everyone else. Joining is optional.

The join page lists what is shared.

You need an investment, a saved goal and a Die with zero plan first.

The Community join card with the list of what gets shared, a country menu and a Join anonymously button.

How the figures are made.

  • Progress in steps of 10%
  • Mix rounded to 5%
  • Stop age as a five-year range
  • Changes as whole percentages
  • Moments appear after a random delay of up to two hours
  • Each member counts once

Leaving the community.

Delete your account and your entry is removed with it.

The Community page has no leave button. Once you join, your entry stays in the figures until you delete your account.

FAQ

Questions about the community

More questions
Do I have to join?

Joining is optional. Nothing is sent to the community until you join, and the rest of the app works the same.

Can I choose which signals to share?

Joining shares everything on the list. The Community page has no switches for single signals.

Can anyone tell who I am?

An entry holds a country, ranges, percentages and ready-made choices. It has no name or email address, and the server keeps no link between an entry and your account.

Are small groups hidden?

The minimum group size is 1, so a small group is shown as it is. Figures from very few members can be traced to one entry, for example by comparing them before and after one person joins. Entries still carry no name or email address.

How do I leave?

Delete your account from the Account page. Your entry is removed from the community with it. Until then it stays in the figures.

Are the figures checked?

Figures are made from numbers that members choose to share. They are not checked and may be wrong or incomplete. They are not a benchmark or a ranking, and they are not advice.

Add your first investment.

You can join once you have an investment, a saved goal and a Die with zero plan.
