Balancing feature requests with your core vision is crucial. First, assess if the request aligns with your product's primary goals. If it doesn't, communicate transparently with users about why it might not fit. Consider a compromise by integrating elements of the request that enhance, rather than divert, from your vision. Use a prioritization framework like RICE (Reach, Impact, Confidence, Effort) to evaluate its value. Encourage user feedback to understand their needs better and possibly inspire future features that align with your vision. Remember, staying true to your core vision ensures long-term product integrity and success.
