> I prioritize technology ahead of marketing, and am currently struggling to flip this around.

May I ask why you feel strongly about a technology-first approach?

I can think of someone that tried your exact approach, but it didn't end well. He happens to be a member of this community [0] and he wrote a great blog post [1] introspecting as to the reasons why technology-first approaches don't work in the world we live in.

If you've not read it, I encourage you to do so.

I just love tech a lot more than marketing, probably primarily because I'm much better at tech!

I'm glad that RethinkDB seems to be headed toward a happy ineding as a community, and thanks for the pointer to the write up.
