Hi,
A question others often ask me when I'm struggling with a decision is "will you regret it?"
And that simple paradigm can make the answer clear.
But sometimes, I'm not sure. Sometimes, it seems like the options are equivalent – 6 one, half a dozen the other.
That got me curious about what other decisions people have made and whether they regret those decisions and why.
So, I made Did You Regret It – a directory of big life decisions and whether people regretted them, including their reasoning.
It might not actually help you make a huge life decision, but it's interesting to hear other people's stories in little bite-sized pieces.
- cipheredStones 2y agoInteresting concept, but a point on the design: it's quite unclear whether the "reasoning" part is supposed to be "why you did it", "why you do/don't regret it", or both.
- thsnyder 2y agoAh, great point! I may rename that field so it’s more clear. Thanks!
- nuancebydefault 2y agoI like it! As soon as the database has a bit more meat to it, above some critical mass offset, I think this service can prove useful. The comments/stories/rationales will be probably more valuable than the metrics, just like with HN comments!
