We've already had over 1000 prompts shared and thousands of people using it. It's just as much about discovering cool ways to use AI that other humans share that you may not have thought of.

You can search for prompts related to something and find ones that are valuable without needing to write an effective prompt yourself. example marketers are searching 'marketing' and finding useful prompts contributed by other people.

Or if you search logo design you can see how other people are prompting logos and use it to inspire your ideas

i meant: how does one search for a prompt without writing the prompt?

i don't think this idea will produce anything to even get to the point of needing to solve the supply demand paradox.

If the user uses a social login, offer to use their existing profile pic (but don’t do it automatically esp if that’s public by default), or offer automatic gravatar style avatar.

It’s all well wanting to make a community, I left the site not knowing what the site can do for me because I had no way to test drive what your offering before having to commit, simplify user sign up and if the community is worth it users will customise their account/profile later.

communities and marketplaces are hard.

you have to provide (usually faking) one side of it initially ti be able to attract the other

Its not "easy" but we've been fortunate to have people contributing already!

Landing page is nice but I am confused why this would be better than generating a prompt from the LLM itself? Latest models are extremely good in taking the seed of a problem and enhancing the prompt to the nth degree until you're satisfied.

You can definitely get good prompts from LLMs themselves. A lot of people have told us this gives better variations.

Not the core product though either. The community sourced library helps you discover ideas from humans you may not have thought of yet! We've really been enjoying that aspect.

Too many requirements just to test it out.

Typed in a simple prompt and selected generate, only to be told I must have an account, ffs, annoying as hell, but fine at least you have “sign in as” options and I’ll just block you if it gets spammy with the emails, but then you insist I upload a profile pic.

Yeah fuck that.

Sorry to hear it got you frustrated.

1. We enabled sign up first to be able to easily add to your prompt library without having to create an account after you generate.

2. We'll never send you emails unless you opt in on the complete profile screen

3. considering dropping profile pic requirement. Did that to make it feel more like a community
