I went through an active search two years ago, and what I learned is that cofounder fit is super hard to find, and probably impossible to timebox. But I thought that similar to how zettelkasten allows your ideas to grow into essays, I could grow the size and strength of my network until it becomes extremely obvious that someone is a great fit.

Furthermore, the best fit might be someone who is not on the cofounder market, that way I might be able to recruit them first.

Interesting approach by OP. As a technical founder I am similarly taking the approach of meeting as many people as I can and sharing, building in public, being helpful, but not with the frame of cofounder dating. If we really vibe with someone, then we can take it further. Meanwhile I make progress on my idea that I find meaningful.

Good luck on your journey, Abe!

Thanks!

I definitely agree with this. I feel fortunate to have met a few people that seem like they could be a great fit, but we are still early.

It takes time and working together to really ensure a great cofounder pair.

The experiment will continue!
