@lennysan I always like to think of peopleโs incentives. And the incentive here is just about token farming. You still need a strategy, and alignment to that strategy especially if it includes more complex ecosystems. The above only works for very simple products.
@danieljayregan@Toribridgland@Toribridgland just listened to this episode and want to say, you are the type of person who I wanted to become when I did my PhD. It didnโt work for me.
@shreyas I mostly agree, it also I kinda hate only โdonโt do thisโ posts.
In some circumstances this is fine: well established domain that hasnโt changed much with an experienced leader looking to maintain market share => this is kinda fine. Maybe even efficient.
@almondalexandra True, but also this is from literal decades of build-up from massive participation at the grassroots level. Sam Kerr was following in her brotherโs footsteps before she had no league to play in.
@JeffSpeckFAICP@voxdotcom It is somewhat depressing that the lessons you are preaching are so rarely heeded. When I read your book I was in my 20s. Iโm nearly 40 now. I thought it would all change.
