This line was golden: Sometimes we were iterating on the vision when we should have been iterating closer to user signal. The difference is subtle but it matters a lot. One converges toward something people want. The other converges toward a more elegant version of something people don't.

I’m building a way for people to build on top of the browser (https://www.hyper-frame.art). One take away for me from your article was GTM is a bigger moat than technicals (which are brutal in the fork route you went)

thanks! hyper-frame seems really cool! I shall try it out on a side project :)

Warms my heart :) lmk if you want an API key: [email protected]

Very interesting stuff. Are any builds of Sail still available for use?

unfortunately no, Sail was not an offline first app (thought it did have a sync engine for multiplayer) and because the backend is no longer available the builds don't work anymore
