i already regret engaging with this, but want to give some building in public perspective - building in public is hard - for every 100 people giving you feedback, max 4 know what they are talking about and you’re lucky if 1 has actually a good idea - your metrics are public so even the 96 clueless people feel like they are right if numbers go down - for every 100 people giving you feedback you have another 100 people shitting on you for trying to build something new - and there is probably 10 people in your dms fighting for the scraps of the attention - and all of them think "listening to feedback" means "adding their idea TODAY" on top of that people judge you for your financial situation, previous achievements etc as a founder you have 3 ways out of this: - stfu and start interacting with your users less - have your pr team double check everything you write - continue being yourself and post whatever you have on your mind only one option is right, even though it may lead to some hurt feelings

What do you think about this 4th option: Hire an astute community manager you trust to deal with all of this, triage the feedback and sit with you for 15min/day while you focus on the strategic stuff.

This wouldn’t work. Makes it feel like he is “retreating”/hiding behind a community manager Also, at this stage, founder should be the one talking to users
