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

It's true that experimentation drives innovation, but creativity shouldn't take a backseat. Instead of cloning apps, let's push the envelope with fresh ideas. That's where real growth comes from, and it's way more exciting than chasing the latest trend. Quality over clout any day.
