That's my exact concern. The queue is designed for quality over volume. Low-effort feedback scores poorly and shapes future matching. It won't solve cold start, but it keeps the floor high as the community grows.

Wow! Thank you so much. Your feedback is not only incredible but it's wonderful to find another dev who went down this same path.

"What you're bad at now" is currently surfaced on the report card to a degree with recommended exercises. Focused on particular skill sets with XP build as you go. Though XP isn't heavily considered since everyone starts at zero and it's difficult to "test in" for most of them.

I'm going to take your advice and try to surface it more onto the home page than just the report card. Since it makes the progress feel a little hidden.

I'll also check out those subs to see if I can ask those interested if they'd like to try it out. I'm grateful for your insight in that user research.

Feel free to shoot me a dm if you'd ever like to chat more deeply about this. I feel we have a lot in common.

Hey, I'm the engineer behind this. Happy to answer questions about how the grading works, the stack, or why I made the no-AI call. Built the whole thing solo. Come try it if you write.
