When we were in our first iteration of "Link Goodies," part of RiteForge, and the thing that became Rite.ly, a customer asked for video advertisements - pointing out that Snip.ly, Rite.ly's top competitor, doesn't do. And we did video ads. And Snip.ly did not. BTW, @matcha_anil take it from an old startup head - rather than users, listen to customers. "Users" just want more free stuff, and generally will never pay.

The best feedback I received so far is to not add a bunch of features but to rather keep a core minimum features and rather improve the UI/UX of the product

As a startup founder, I always value feedback from users and customers as it helps me improve my product. One of the best pieces of advice I received from a user was to simplify the user interface of my product. The user explained that while they loved the concept and functionality of my product, they found it difficult to navigate and use. They suggested that I simplify the user interface and make it more intuitive. At first, I was hesitant to make significant changes to the product, but after giving it some thought, I realized that the user was right. I made some changes to the user interface and saw a significant improvement in user engagement and retention. This experience taught me the importance of listening to user feedback and continuously improving my product based on their needs and preferences. It also taught me that sometimes the best advice can come from unexpected sources, and it's important to be open to feedback from all users.

These are 2 advice we got to our tools directory: 1. Make the filters checkbox instead of radio button 2. Add search bar

We have a very simple and easy product at the moment. Mostly the feedback is on the lines of "Don't become too complicated like some of our competitors as we grow."
