This or That prompts are simple yet powerful tools for community engagement. By asking members to choose between two options, you lower the barrier to participation and invite spontaneous interaction. These quick questions foster a relaxed, playful atmosphere where even shy or new members can easily jump in.
For biohacking communities, This or That prompts tap into shared interests around wellness, optimization, and experimentation. They encourage members to share preferences, spark healthy debates, and reveal personal insights without pressure. This creates a sense of belonging and keeps conversations flowing, strengthening the social fabric of your group.

To use these templates, simply copy and paste your favorite prompt directly into your community platform. Post them as regular threads, story polls, or chat starters to encourage quick replies. Mix up the topics to appeal to different members and keep things fresh. You can also invite members to explain their choices for deeper engagement, but always keep the questions light and approachable.
These This or That templates are perfect for all platforms, including forums, Facebook Groups, Discord, Slack, or WhatsApp. For chat-based platforms, use them as icebreakers or quick polls. On forums or feeds, post as standalone threads and pin for visibility. Consider using platform features like polls, reactions, or stories to make participation even easier.
Leverage the popularity and curiosity around nootropics by creating 'This or That' posts that directly compare their effects, use cases, and side effects. For example, frame posts as 'Modafinil or L-theanine for focus?' and invite members to share their real-world experiences, preferred dosing protocols, and any bio-individual responses. This not only generates engagement but also educates your audience through peer insights.
Structure your 'This or That' posts to focus on easily relatable outcomes or features, such as 'Better sleep tracking: Oura Ring or Whoop?' Provide brief explanations or infographics within your template, clarifying key metrics like HRV or sleep staging, so all members, regardless of technical background, feel included and empowered to participate.
Controversial topics can drive high engagement but require careful moderation. Use your templates to promote respectful sharing of personal protocols ('Which fasting protocol works best for your cognitive clarity?') rather than framing as right vs. wrong. Be ready to offer evidence-based resources or invite expert insights to keep the conversation informed and constructive.
Craft posts that invite members to consider how their genetics might influence their biohacking choices: 'Do you see greater benefits from cold plunges or infrared saunas, given your COMT/MTHFR status?' Encourage members to share their experiences and any genetic insights, which fosters nuanced discussion and deeper personalization within your community.
'This or That' templates can demystify complex tracking tools by encouraging members to compare their experiences: 'CGM or finger prick—Which gives you better insight into glucose variability?' Use this as a springboard for sharing practical tips, data interpretation strategies, and the pros/cons of each approach, helping members make informed decisions in their biohacking journeys.
Frame your 'This or That' posts with a focus on bioavailability and member-reported outcomes, e.g., 'Synthetic or liposomal vitamin C: Which delivers better results in your protocols?' Encourage the sharing of anecdotal evidence and links to relevant studies, fostering an environment where efficacy and scientific rigor take center stage in the conversation.
