I have the same issue as him but the issue is that users today expect a certain level of fidelity otherwise they will stick to incumbents.

I think your advice worked back in 2010-2018 when the bar was very low.

My audience literally didn’t want to use my product because while it was solving their problem it didn’t have the same level of fidelity as their current stack. So I had to spend a lot of time improving it.

These days the bar is so high. Unless you really do find something unique that has not been technified.

These days it’s mostly a David vs Goliath style of battle.
