Ask HN: Why a Great Product Won't Succeed Without a Community

By gonzar79 1 min read 2 views 0 comments

I'm really tired, fed up, and angry. You can create the best product in the world, but people always choose what their favorite influencers tell them to. People don’t make their own decisions anymore; they always think whatever they’re told to think. It’s really frustrating to try to create something good—something better than what others are doing. And I’ve realized one thing: to achieve success, it’s better to have a community that follows you than to have a great product. If you want to launch a good product, you’re better off building a community first—it’ll make everything easier and faster. I don’t care what you think of this post—I just want to say what I feel.
