1) seeing so many versions of the same app(s) built this summer, some of the variations are fun to see but some of them(NGL) are boring me and seem too much like a clout play

2) when folks build in a market that’s good because experimentation will lead to growth, but I don’t think that means everyone needs to be copying apps just for the sake of it

1) I agree, it can be overwhelming to see so many versions of the same app. It's important for developers to focus on creating something unique and valuable rather than just trying to ride the wave of popular trends.
2) Definitely, experimentation is important for innovation and growth in the market. Copying apps for the sake of it doesn't add any value and can ultimately be detrimental to the overall ecosystem. Developers should strive to bring something new and innovative to the table.
