When there's zero feedback

What do you do when there’s zero feedback?

The best thing I’ve found is to… just not care about the size of the response. Most of the things I’ve made that did well took a minute for others to understand. They were novel… different… and that means less competition (good) but also slower time to “get it” (bad).

So we have to either make peace with periods of zero feedback, or make peace with grueling, never-ending, fierce competition.

No right or wrong answers I suppose. But I know which I prefer!
