Re: "why don't you hire someone to do X" comments for Bountycaster, in my opinion: - being resource constrained with 2 people forces us to work on the highest priority items. Easy to fall into having people work on random stuff just because you can - hiring more people creates more work too (recruiting, managing, etc) - we're bootstrapped, hiring people requires more funding. This is also more work and changes dynamics (fundraising, managing investors, etc) - we want our team size / burn to be in line with the market opportunity right now and we don't feel it's justified yet to hire more - one of the highest ROI things a founder can be doing early on is being constantly in touch with users, not something I want to be delegating away at our stage

Well said. The struggle to get someone to do a job well is real.
