Was on the phone and am not good with touch typing. But, I actually did what I mentioned above. Being stuck at home like the OP, I actually had a lot of time on hand. So, I started calling Coffee shops that had recently pivoted to Shopify model(that change is happening in a massive scale) to try and see if they would be interested in a subscription model for their coffee beans and grinds. The outcome is for a different day, but the moral is "Always try to Invalidate your idea". Your ideas are innately biased. And that's why Starting with a clearly defined pinpoint is way easier than to apply Lean Startup methodology to Your "ideas". Hope that helps. Cant recommend Ryan Fitzpatrick's Mom Test enough. Guy even has a YT channel where he expands on some of the things he talks about in his book.
