We are in strong product market fit. User growth has been very strong. When we push a new feature, any small bug will disrupt their workflow and it comes back at us like a tidal wave.

Been stuck in weak PMF for ages, but been doing data analysis to see how users are using, having conversations with them and looking for areas of drop off. I uncovered more issues than I thought and released countless updates and feature requests and I am really hoping I can get past this! Wish me luck

Solid! A great idea would be transposing this into a Cole’s notes PDF!
