I wasn’t convinced of MWI by the quantum mechanics sequence when I read it. I came to the conclusion that it’s probably true later, after thinking intensively about the anthropic trilemma (my preferred resolution is incompatible with single-world interpretations); but my probability estimate is still only at 0.8.
I’ll write more about this, but it will take some time. I posted the basic idea on the Anthropic Trilemma thread when I first had it, but the explanation is too pithy to follow easily, and I don’t think many people saw it. Revisiting it now has brought to mind an intuition pump to use.

Ooh, tell us more!
