I don't have anything substantial to say for this blog post, sorry, except maybe a generic "scratch your own itch" and "continue scratching them until you find one that other people too have" sort of a thing. I guess you already know that, and you're looking for or thinking aloud about more specific advice.
But anyways, after reading this post I clicked around and read your other post. I found that useful, so wanted to say thanks! I especially found it useful how you separated market-fit from founder-fit, I'd not quite cleanly separated them that way before.
Also, while I'm sure it was very frustrating, but I wouldn't count it as failure: if there was a straight path to "success" (whatever that means to someone), then everyone would be taking it. Keep building, and best of luck!
