thank you very much for your insight, i appreciate it!

but i think you misunderstood my premise. we don't promise you customers or have anything to do with customers.

we are building a social network that would make startups "more visible" (in your words - 'more eyeballs'). today every startup launches on every social media in the hope of getting noticed, but gets lost as there are contents from other grown brands and content creators. whereas at our platform only startups can create contents and, in a way, show how have they grown and how their product has evolved. and all the data that we generate from user-content interaction would be processed and presented to startups to help them understand their customers (they can use this to their advantage - we DO NOT intervene)

just that's it! i say it again WE DO NOT PROMISE CUSTOMERS!!

You are arguing against a straw man. He’s just asking: why would anyone want to just “explore startups”? People are interested in content that entertains them, educates them or from family and friends. Why would they explore your platform?

oh no, i am not arguing with anyone! damn these text don't capture any emotions!

yes, i agree with your statement as well! we "hypothesize" that not the entire population would be looking to get to know more startups but with passing time the number of people who want to check out new startups is rising. and to support it we can see the success Product Hunt has had. moreover, we have had some (not great) but some positive reactions toward the idea.

just that's all. i am almost done building the MVP so why just stop? well even if i fail, what i gotta lose here.
