It's important to listen to user feedback, but we focus on understanding the underlying problems rather than just implementing their feature requests.

It's crucial not to let hijack users dictate the product roadmap; focusing on solving one problem well is more effective than trying to please every user that comes along.

It's important to quickly build and test ideas. If something doesn't work, it's better to kill it and start again rather than justifying its existence with additional features that may not address user needs.

Designers should advocate for users, ensuring that products address not just the ideal cases but also the edge cases that often lead to dissatisfaction.

Users are the ultimate judges of whether a design works, and their feedback is crucial in the design process.

Users often suggest features that may not address their actual problems; your role is to identify the core issues they face.

Beware of the Frankenstein approach: while it's important to listen to user feedback, don't rush to build every feature they suggest. Instead, understand the underlying problem they want solved before adding new features.

Common mistakes in prototyping include overbuilding and not engaging with users early enough to gather feedback.

You should always check if every feature of your product solves the primary problem; the truth can be painful, but it's essential for success.
