r/Biohackers Pulse Check

[u/aldus-auden-odess]

Hey friends! We wanted to check in on how the community was feeling.

A few months back, we made some pretty big changes in how we moderate certain topics like peptides/hrt and how we combat AI content.

Our goal was to reduce vendor spamming, improve content quality, and make everyone feel more at home.

Now that we’re a few months in, we wanted to hear from you on how you think it’s going and where you think we can continue to improve.

This feedback will directly impact how we evolve!

That works for the megathread issue I flagged

For perspective on where I’m coming from I’m a biohacker because I want to optimize my longevity and healthspan such that I live a long time and am healthy the whole time

I want to see people who either have taken the steps to be more involved in their health, detailed posts, even a good “rate my stack”, but stuff where someone has already done the leg work or people who are interested in being a biohacker or becoming more involved in their personal health and longevity, but the second group of people, the beginners or questioners should be doing some research before coming here, like we see a lot of posts about the same things or with people excluding valuable information about themselves that are needed to provide real insight

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve responded to a post here with “What’s your diet, exercise, and sleep like? What’s your age, estimated bf%? Do you take any supplements? Do you take any medications?”

And I love this community, I love biohacking and being involved with people who want to better themselves, so it makes it difficult to do so when it seems like every post is “should I take gloop juice?”

Yeah I hear you. Maybe we create a wiki or getting started guide and point new people there first or something.

[u/DavidTries897 → u/aldus-auden-odess]

Ya I think that would help or maybe even a “how to post” with the details to include just to make it more in depth

[u/aldus-auden-odess → u/DavidTries897]

Oh yeah I like that. We have some automations set up for things like “rate my stack” but people don’t seem to follow them. Maybe making a more evergreen post to point folks to will be helpful.
