You know you're an old school Linux user when... you still try to use `ifconfig` and get a "command not found" error, followed by a moment of silent grief 🤬

Working on a tool to reduce admin time for people in client-facing jobs (law, property, therapy, etc.)

At this stage I'm looking for advice on whether to:
- Go all-in on one niche?
- Or stay broad and keep testing?

What would you recommend? Thanks!

@NadyaVoynich Thank you Nadya!

Does anyone have tips on how to get meaningful feedback before building?

Trying to validate a painful admin problem in client-facing jobs (think vets, solicitors, estate agents, etc.)

Tried Reddit but posts tend to get deleted.

How do you do early-stage validation?

The unstoppable urge to download every podcast, my entire music library, a half-dozen seasons of a TV show I’ve never watched, and at least ten movies anytime I travel is real. ✈️🧳

Problem: “We can’t release daily. The business decides when we can release new features.”

Solution: Decouple release from deployment.

Here’s how:
1. Hide new features via feature flags
2. Deploy daily
3. The product owner changes a setting to instantly show a new feature

@catalinmpit Better use of tools like Slack - lots of meetings could just be a quick message

Sorry, but it looks like Meta's new Twitter rival Threads won't be coming to EU app stores anytime soon
