While I'm not "in" SV I do interact with many who do. I think SV it's more "cool" to give honest and direct feedback above anything else.
Though my observations are purely anecdotal as are yours (I'm assuming). But I don't think it's healthy to encourage if you think the app is stupid. Feel free to refrain from commenting at all but let the people who really like / use the app be the cheerleaders.
- volaski 11y agoIn my experience, people give direct feedback in terms of how they should execute (in constructive manner), but rarely criticizes and discourages the idea itself as being crazy. Over time people learn to cope with the fact that they really never know what will happen tomorrow to a guy they thought had the stupidest idea, so people are very open to crazy ideas.
- BinaryIdiot 11y agoFair enough. There have certainly been plenty of ideas that seemed stupid then all of a sudden make it big.
