(since I put my preferences out there, only fair that I put more such content in this channel) Here is something I believe in + recommend: Avoid "champagne problems" - problems that arise after customers use your product enough. _what happens if we get 100 users and don't have a glasses for the celebratory champagne? let's get the glasses first so we are ready_ this is the same as: - what if our server can't scale to N requests/min? No need to solve that till your product is at N rpm. - customers will immediately ask for feature Y after trying feature X. Yes probably, get them to try X and care enough to ask for Y. Musk is iterating on rockets that go to space. Iteration works. Do not get champagne glasses, just launch. https://warpcast.com/rish/0x10585304

+1, when we started working on Kiwi my biggest worry was that we'd get a lot of spam where the biggest fear should've been that no one would use the app. we've been running the project for over 1.5 yrs and we still haven't had a spam problem

ive thought about this framing for many years now as the maserati problem 😅 "don't worry about which color you'd get until you can get it". nowadays should prob be something worth a lot more though lol

the counterpoint (or maybe a tradeoff in this case) might be that you have only one shot at making the first impression if you launch but your service constantly fails or your product is of subpar quality, only your biggest fans will have the stomach to tolerate this until you fix it, especially in a competitive market it’s way easier when you’re the first mover, because the tolerance is higher i think we’re blessed by all being somewhat in the first-movers market here, but we shouldn’t be blind to the flip-side
