You seem to be blaming other people for things, maybe learn to swallow your ego and take criticism better. Certainly with this comment and your blogpost you are not taking feedback well, instead blaming the people giving it. Stewart Lee as a joke often blames his audience for not understanding the genius of his comedy, this seems similar except it’s not funny.

I have made dozens of improvements to Thingamagig based on valid user feedback.

On the first, am I supposed to improve based on something the user's kids said without trying the product?

On the second, what exactly did she complain about aside from "hardware improvements"? I'll make the changes. But what are they, exactly?

Building startups and finding product market fit is really hard, I suggest that if you’re this annoyed at such a small issue you’re going become very annoyed at all the failures you need to have to make something people want. I would love to know about what you are building though...

Early reviews are critical to a product's trajectory. Of course I'm going to get upset about Vine giving my free guitar product to non-guitarists who turn around and leave poor reviews. It's absurd.

What do you want to know about the product? This is the best primer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9haR4CCeh9o

Wow that’s so cool, I was thinking about something similar for piano midi, seems pretty sad that the best piano sounds are reserved for more expensive pianos. I agree about initial reviews being difficult to deal with. Maybe this is the wrong route and you need to work with the biggest electric guitar YouTubers first? If you get them onside you’re golden I’d say. Good luck!
