As a tech lead, how do you balance between the big picture roadmap and iterating on user feedback? I seem to always get stuck on either side 😔 E.g. Kiwi News has tons of issues on the low level APIs (users tell me). I could fix all of those vs. I could build a web UI and render them less relevant. What is best?

how I would takle it: 1.have a working core, just a single bare way to use it 2.make a general todo list and define contribution guidelines etc. so users who test can fix aswell 3.takle one major milestone which brings you the most gain-time ratio 4.get a feel for priorities and go on

in addition: -triage issues -try to break down bigger workloads (major milestones) in small deliverable steps, and don‘t interrupt the step you‘re working on unless a high prio issue (eg breaking bug) comes up -in between these steps, takle lower prio issues before starting the next step
