LAUNCH IT NOW, MAN!

It will never be perfect. Ever.

You shouldn't be afraid of failing. This is not a one shot game. Your launch will show you some areas where you did things right and some where you screwed the pooch. It's about never ending improvement, not a shot in the dark that results in binary success or failure.

But one thing is certain - you need users to improve. You can't do that by yourself. So put away the IDE, and start pounding the pavement for users. There will be plenty of time later for improvements.

So yeah, you are right. You should have launched months ago. But who cares? Learn and move on.

You won't have any users right away anyhow, so relax and enjoy the process.

You're right. This is not a one shot game. It is something that I will keep working on. Somehow after all this time has passed, it's embarrassing to launch a minimum viable product because people will say "Oh, that's it?". But that's just in my head and need to get over my fears. Cheers!
