This or That prompts harness the power of simplicity and immediacy, which is especially effective for ADHD communities where attention may shift quickly. By asking members to choose between two relatable options, you lower the barrier to participation, making it easy for anyone to jump in without overthinking.
The playful nature of these prompts encourages spontaneous responses, reduces anxiety about giving the 'right' answer, and helps members bond over shared quirks and preferences. They also provide a quick dopamine boost, which can be motivating for people with ADHD. When community members see others' answers, it fosters a sense of connection and acceptance, strengthening group ties.
Most importantly, This or That questions are inclusive and approachable, making them ideal for members who may not be comfortable with deeper or more complex topics but still want to join the conversation.
