TL;DR various subreddits are getting overwhelmed by self-promos so they've instituted weird rules, leading to people revolting. I'm only fascinated by this because:

1. Reddit is fantastic for organically building communities
2. Reddit's startup communities are plagued by low-quality promotions

The best way to start is coming up with an idea organically OR from deeply researching, not because it sounds good on paper. Forcing yourself to start can be good for the sake of inertia, but always ends up being poor founder fit.

You can still start, just don't expect that iteration to succeed.

The productivity drop-off from moving to NYC in the Summer is really obvious in hindsight

I think before embarking on a #SaaS, one should try to launch a low-stakes product first. I worked at 3 different SaaS startups and then wrote an ebook before starting my first SaaS.

You very quickly learn how important distribution is and why you should talk to 30 customers before writing any code
