When I watched the video I immediately knew I was a 2-boxer. “Its just 1000$ more, the mystery box doesnt magically change”. Of course I know it is better to be the kind of person to only take the mystery box, because for me it will be empty. But saying “I would take only one” feels like cheating, like the mystery box would still be empty because the supercomputer knew I was only pretending.



Ive been wondering about that myself.
I think it was the same with reddit. Maybe these types of “forums” are just popular among Germans. But I also feel like on average Germans have a higher tendency towards english content than the rest of Europe. Especially France and eastern Europe are notoriously monolingual. I guess there are probably a lot of dutch or belgian people here (relatively speaking), but those countries are smaller so there arent many in absolute numbers.
