Damn, that fucking sucks, but good for you for pursuing the mission. 6 months is not super long as it sounds like it takes 12-18 months to get to PMF.

curious what your founder agreement says? Does it have a clause on dispute resolution? It's shitty that your founder won't let you walk away with the code if they are doing something totally unrelated imo, and this is coming from an engineer.

Thanks for this. I think he plans to leverage little pieces of the code in his new project, but it's essentially value-less at this stage. I also think as he wrote the code and has put so much time into it there is likely a strong sense of ownership and high level of value assigned (regardless of its true value).

The 12-18 months to PMF is really why I'd love to push it a little further and see what comes out of it. I think doing so without a product is possible, and based on a lot of the comments that seems to be my best path.

Have you really put the same amount of time in it?
