A company that prioritizes product-market fit can build a great, customer-focused business.
The venture capitalist Marc Andreessen has said that for startups, product-market fit is "the only thing that matters."
I appreciate Marc's wisdom: Great product-market fit produces a sugar high.
And that goal is well aligned with the broader social goal of making people less lonely.
Over time, it became apparent that this was not a great social fit.
