Wrote about how consumer apps are now increasingly competitive and resemble entertainment, with users wanting to try out the latest thing and moving on. For founders, the strategy can be to build transient apps, rather than aiming for a "kitchen sink" giant: https://www.lisnewsletter.com/p/multi-hit-wonders

some thoughts to layer on - figuring out how to ship products fast = fast cycles of learning - multiple live products wif data tracking = feedback loop of what to build, how to build and who to build for - targeting differerent users groups helps filter where high quality users are

Agreed. Prototyping speed has soared with high-quality, open-source tools and platforms like Expo & Vercel, enabling quick iterations and experimentation. Founders can now launch high-quality MVPs in weeks, not months.

Great take! I think it’s fair to note that there’s an ongoing loop that feeds the demise of new social apps that is incentives. One way around that is actually adopting the game studio model as you mention here, to take advantage of short attention spans of today’s consumers and create 10x hits.
