This is an awesome service. We are using it to answer questions and find interesting answers. It is cool be able and discover top leaders from many industries and be able to ask them anything without barriers. You may ask us anything: https://yes.no/ranky-de-muchkin

Great Idea, I think it should have some different aspects that Quora doesn't have . I love Blue-white Tech so i hope you succeed , also i'm following your for a some time and think you did a great job until now.
Actually kinda cool, some kind of mixed quora & Reddit only with a specific target market so they can build a dedicated user experience.
Gave it my upvote.
Hey guys! It looks pretty neat. Congrats on the launch.
I am sure you know about it, but it looks in a way similar to ask.fm (They are widely used in the gaming/Esports community). Their UI/UX is not so great tho but you should definitly look into them!
@bouazizalex Hey Alex, thanks for the support! Yes indeed, ask.fm is very successful, although sometimes at too great a cost. That's why we're dedicated to offering a moderated and respectful Q&A environment, without any option for asking anonymous questions.

Kudus. This looks neat. I'm a huge @Quora fan and user. But this feels like an interesting twist, with the emphasis on the person instead of the topic. There are certainly people out there whom I'd love to have a one-on-one interview with.
The Welcome To The Crowd Interview angle is the most interesting in my mind. Which makes me think you should choose one direction and focus. On the other and, probably better to leave it to the users to decide. They always do anyway :)
The design is pretty too. HOWEVER, I do wish not all illustrations were of white men. That's very off putting to me.
@darshu Thanks for the honest feedback Daria! If I get you correctly it's about the users shown on the discovery/landing page. The people shown there will vary according to your location, and are simply people who have agreed to participate (regardless of who we have reached out to). That said, we completely agree and are focusing efforts to bring a more diverse set of users to yes.no. Any suggestions for interesting people to recruit would be much appreciated! Would love to get an intro and help them open their page on yes.no, my email is also jonathan@yes.no
Great job to the team on putting this together, doing outreach, and creating a community from scratch. Never an easy thing!
I like how this focuses on asking specific people directed questions - a lot of which are thoughtful ones. I do feel that a lot of the questions appear canned or are coming from pseudo accounts, but I imagine once the community takes off, things will take care of themselves and it won't really matter.
I believe of the keys to keeping your experts to come back and remain active is by somehow letting them know that their answer has made a difference. Quora uses upvotes; Reddit AMAs have a constant free flow of responses from active participants, etc. Again this may work better when the community has grown sizeably, but it will be very important to think about, imo.
@alirtariq Hi Ali - thanks for the support and feedback, it's much appreciated!
You're certainly right that building a community from scratch is no easy task, and it can take some time for it to develop and reach a good balancing point.
In terms of indicating that answers have made a difference, we have recently introduced the 'like' feature (heart button) for answers (having previously focused only on the upvote for questions). This is a simple but effective way of expressing that an answer is good and appreciated. But definitely agree with the sentiment here, and it will be interesting to think of new and better ways to express this. Any suggestions for how we could do this in a more powerful way would be most welcome!
