*Between September 2020 and February 2021, [Wouter Moraal](https://woutermoraal.nl) worked with Manyverse as a UX researcher and designer, to improve the onboarding experience for new users. On this Wiki the documentation and results of the project are shared to inform for further development of Manyverse and related apps.*

## Summary

|
|
|
|
|
Welcome to the Manyverse was born out of the understanding that the onboarding experience for non-expert users on Manyverse was lonely and difficult. The onboarding experience needed be improved for the Manyverse user base to grow faster and more diverse to have a substantial positive impact on the global social media ecosystem. The project started out with research into potential next adopters for Manyverse. Young LGBTQ and/or anti-capitalist people living in countries in the Global North and South with good internet accessibility and smartphone adoption were selected and targeted as Manyverse's next adopters. These next adopters were involved in the formation of user persona's and usability testing of prototypes. Other stakeholders given an indirect 'voice' in the design process by using the Value Sensitive Design methodology. The resulting final prototypes which are presented as well as the other knowledge products which were produced in the process are shared here for use in further development of Manyverse and related apps.
